Some of the bugs can be remedied by Undoing the last few actions (CTRL + Z), then you have to zoom in/out and/or move the page around to make Inkscape redraw the page properly again.
INKSCAPE REVIEW WINDOWS
While I typically only mention the Paint bucket fill tool in this section, which is slow in Inkscape too, it seems a mute point to mention.īugs/ Crashes- I have to add this section as Inkscape is rather unstable on Windows and ranges from annoying bugs to crashing and loosing your artwork. It takes about 5 seconds and freezes for several seconds like in the screenshot above, before the new page is open. Opening a new page with Inkscape (currently open), is now a issue in 0.92.3. Using the freehand "brush" tool (F6) is nice and fluid, as several others are - including the text tool (F8), and rectangle tool (F4) for panels. Once loaded Inkscape preforms some tasks well, and others are slow (see below). Although, now since the "fix" it takes Inkscape just as long to reload. In previous versions once Inkscape was loaded and closed, reloading it later was much quicker. Program Speed - Loading Inkscape is slow, even the "fixed" 0.92.3 version and can take 15 seconds or more to fully load (or show any indication it is doing so, as it does not use a splash/loading screen).

INKSCAPE REVIEW SOFTWARE
Other issues are not so easy to accomplish, or simply not possible to do.Īll software is subjective to hardware installed, so with that in mind here is my current workhorse PC (A updated HP Z200 Workstation) specs I used for testing with all updated drivers.ĬPU - Intel Core i5 CPU 660 3.33GHz (2 Cores, 4 Threads) The 2nd is starting a new line from a previous line.Īgain nothing complicated, just mundane examples someone drawing with the freehand tool does constantly. The first column examples are dragging the top edge of a line to another line (the M) to align them without a gap or overflow. In my image above the top two are from CorelDRAW, and below the blue line are from Inkscape (after much tinkering/searching finally found in Snap options). Even then are still not the same, in the example Inkscape will snap any line that gets close to another (such as drawing nearby), so it only works partially as intended.
I find though many things that are defaults in other programs for example drawing lines connected to others, takes effort to setup in Inkscape. I wish you well though in finding help responses more than "install a Linux distro", or "write a bug fix yourself" useless responses.
There are many Inkscape users so finding resources and examples are plentiful. Online there is a manual, more tutorials, forums, and videos. In Inkscape's Help menu are various internal tutorials. If you get lucky as a Windows user and do not get all the problems mentioned below, then you are greeted with a typical vector style program.
