=== 6. Add more filters by repeating previous steps, note that "Configure selected filter" box changes its content according to type of selected filter ===
[[Image:Filter-workflow6.png|500|center]]

== TODO ==

* Flesh this specification out in more detail

== Discussion ==
I like this, but don't like the Path effects to be on a tab on the Effects dialog. I think LPE has to be separated from the filters, as it is now.

:Yes, this probably wasn't a good idea - mock-ups have been updated. But both dialogs should have similar look & feel. Although LPEs and filters don't share to much code under the hood, they have the same purpose from users point of view (do magic things on paths and objects in non-destructive way). Current mock-ups seem to be consistent with planned LPE dialog [http://www.nabble.com/LPE-dropdown-box-(was-%3A-NEW%3A-LPE-Interpolate)-td18695687.html discussed on mailing list]. --[[User:Jarek|Jarek]] 21:58, 24 August 2008 (UTC)
