[Inkscape-user] Another Inkscape Book update

Hi,

I've once again updated my book "A Guide to Inkscape":

http://tavmjong.free.fr/INKSCAPE/MANUAL/html/index.php

The book should now cover almost all (if not all "non-experimental") features of Inkscape v0.42. The biggest changes are the completion of the Tiling and Tracing chapters as well as adding an index.

This is still a draft. I plan on adding more examples and of course the new v0.43 features when they have stabilized.

There are a few things that I don't fully understand. Perhaps someone could enlighten me:

1. Find dialog:

What is the use of the "Text" entry box. I could not get it do anything.

2. Gradient handles:

Is there a good use for gradient handles that snap to each other?

3. Text and Font dialog, Spell checker:

Does this actually work?

Thanks,

Tav
