I admit that I only use Inkscape on an occasional basis but I don't
recall it being so atrociously bad in my past experiences with it.
However the current round of bugs I'm seeing suggest that the developers
aren't really in control of their code.
Grouping objects creates different results in transformations than
telling Inkscape to treat the selection as a group. Ungrouping objects
causes them to shift position or rotation. And putting text on a path
produces bizarre results. If the path isn't a circle, you may not be
able to produce the effect you want.
As far as I can remember, these things all used to work. Does anyone
know what's going on with Inkscape development to make it so unusable
right now?
