Re: Making Inkscape 0.91 work with Extensis Suitcase on Mac (Sierra)

Yes, it's probably the most commonly used font manager for Mac, at least for graphic design pros.

Re: Any way to change "snap" key from CTRL to SHIFT?

Maybe having the tablet attached makes it work differently? I might have missed it, but I didn't realize you had a tablet attached. You mean graphics tablet, right? not ipad? It's a WACOM graphics tablet. But it wasn't making a difference--whether I was using the mouse or using the pen equivalent o...

Re: Any way to change "snap" key from CTRL to SHIFT?

Hm. I did just get something to enter accidentally. It turns out I had to hold down my mouse/tablet pen WHILE entering the actual keystroke, not typing the strokes. In other words, I had been trying to type "CTRL+W" instead of keeping the mouse button held down and entering the actual stro...

Nothing.

If I click on the column where the actual keystrokes are shown, the field changes to "New Accelerator", but I can't seem to type anything in it.

View color palettes in separate pane?

Sorry--I'm sure this has been asked before but didn't bring up anything in a search.

The color palette location and layout is driving me crazy. How can I "undock" it so that it's in a free-floating pane or something that I can dock elsewhere, such as in the side panel?

Re: Any way to change "snap" key from CTRL to SHIFT?

All the shortcuts in the file you mentioned are available via Edit -> Preferences -> Interface -> Keyboard Shortcuts. No need to edit the file anymore :) On a Mac (or at least Sierra), you still have to edit the files. I can see the shortcuts in the preferences window but cannot change them. Also, ...

Any way to change "snap" key from CTRL to SHIFT?

I'm used to the Adobe interface and holding down the SHIFT key when I want to draw on a rotational snap (perfectly horizontal, perfectly vertical, various preset angles, etc.) or keep a 1:1 aspect ratio (drawing perfect squares and circles, etc.) when drawing shapes. I finally figured out that Inksc...
