Crash Fixes
Fixed a crash …
- … when exporting clones using 'context-fill' or 'context-strokes' to define a color to PDF (MR 7169)
- … when trying to convert a text-along-path that uses the 'path' attribute to define the path, which is new in SVG2 (and not supported by Inkscape yet - Inkscape uses 'href' to link to where the path is defined) to a normal text (MR #7191, Bug #5229)
- … when trying to export one's custom keyboard shortcuts into a file (MR #7192, Bug #5746)
- … when pressing
Ctrl + Spacein the Filter dialog (MR #7176, Bug #5569) - … when editing an SVG file that contains text that is not in a text object and the preference to check attributes and properties on editing is set to true (MR #7138, Bug #5337)
- Fixed a freeze that occurred when Inkscape was trying to render filtered objects with invalid bounding box sizes (MR #7187, Bug #5356)
General User Interface
- Handles (for rotation, shearing, ...) now look correct, even when the canvas is rotated (MR #7222, Bug #5278)
- The LPE tool (or geometric construction tool) is now by default hidden from the toolbar. It is an experimental tool which is mostly not functioning well (MR #7037, Bug #5044)
- When using drag-and-drop to add a non-SVG-image file to an existing file, Inkscape no longer opens the file in a new window instead, believing that a raster image must be handled according to one's SVG import preference (MR #6929, Bug #5642).

Style
- Clones or markers that contain groups which are set to inherit their style via 'context-fill' and 'context-stroke' attributes now use the correct styles in Inkscape and also when exporting to PDF (MR #7169, Bug #5670, Bug #3458).
- The pattern 'Abstract 1' can now be colored by the user like most other patterns (if you don't know which one that is - it's the first pattern in the 'Geometrical' set, MR #6618).
