Perspective Path Effect on groups
I'm on the PPA of a (very) shaky Inkscape 0.92 devel build. (Ubuntu 16.04)
Can anyone describe how to get perspective on a group?
I watched the youtube (linked from the release notes) but it does not match what I see on my end.
Steps: 1. Draw a few circles. Group them. Select the group. 2. Open Path Effects window. Add "Perspective/Envelope". 3. Switch to the node tool (manually). 4. Drag the corners around.
It: 1. Only affects one thing in the group. 2. or crashes Inkscape. 3. or does nothing. The group remains the same.
Mystified, /d
problem confirmed on Windows 10, Inkscape 0.92pre2 15127 (Oct 21 2016) I have not been able to figure out any way to get this to work on groups. There is a bit of a workaround available, but it is clumsy: create two objects, select them both, and then use the menu item Path->Combine. This will turn them into one object and the LPE will work, but this is destructive. It might be worthwhile to also ask this question on the developer list, or submit a bug report to see if anyone else has experienced this.

Thanks Alvin. Glad I am not alone in failing to get it to work.
