Two things I'm missing in my workflow are very much related to each other. For multi-stop gradients, I'd like to be able to either DnD or use the dropper tool to pick colors for each step. And similarly being able to define offsets, preferably directly on the canvas, would be really rad.
Sure. Always on the TODO.
Of course this brings up my previous suggestion of dropping the on-canvas gradient controls for the node tool as things will get messy.
Why "drop" when you can just disable them in node tool prefs?
And unrelated to this, I haven't managed to get accustomed to the context toolbar for the gradient tool. The fact that requires to set-up gradient properties _before_ making an action and giving little feedback may be the reason. Everything else seems to work on selections. Select an object, define its properties. Select an object, tweak shape with the node tool.
OK, OK, I'm convinced (by you and others). Just don't have time to rework it. Will do some day.
