I typed a page with the same font in 3 different sizes and then deleted one of the titles. In re-doing it, I attempted to move the box which comes down from the Text at the top by clicking on the very top bar, and everything went nuts and I lost everything. I presume I should read the Help section; ...but did I do something really stupid? Robert.

Problem solved: neophytes blunder. I am trying to use Inkscape as a plain text to imaged font (path) program in SVG. It does a very good job but can easily become unstable when ignorance takes over. Thus, Bryce, with regard to earlier comments, Inkscape itself may not truly be web-site building program, it readily lends itself to that capacity through SVG embedding.

Could you elaborate on what happened? If Inkscape crashed that is a bug and not your fault.

I have used Inkscape on both Windows XP and Linux (Suse 9.x) and seen it crashing because of text tool only on Windows. It has crashed if I have replaced same characters more than once during the editing.

I guess that I am saying that Win XP Pro is not entirely stable when you attempt to change your word processing. In this case, I deleted a line, and then called up the box which downloads from the top menu. It covered something I wanted to see, so I did as I do I Windows and tried to attach the cursor to the top bar of the box to move it, and this crashed the system. I had, however, been "messing" around quite a bit with the text trying to sort out how it worked. ,,,,,And yes, Jukkaa, I definitely retyped several things more than once. I was definitely in "experiment mode" so it wasn't a total surprise, but the procedure isn't yet bullet proof.
