 @doctormo @eobet I would love more easy editing of PDF documents, such as dragging and dropping a PDF into Inkscape, easily choose if you want the background to be transparent or white, then easily drag and drop a PNG into one of the pages, position it and export the result as a proper PDF again. Last time I tried this, it wasn't intuitive and I switched to Affinity Designer.  Oh, sorry about that. Everything you've mentioned should be pretty much like that. Though PDFs either have a background shape or don't. It only makes sense to select one on opening for raster images, rather than vector images. What was the version you were last using? @doctormo I used a reasonably new version, about a few months ago. Don't know the details anymore, but I remember getting the multi-page canvas after importing a PDF, then a dropped PNG got lost under hundreds of vector layers in one of the pages, and I believe adding a white layer to the transparent background also failed because of the layer mess. Maybe auto-grouping of the vector layers of each imported page would help. Oh snaps, stay away from that junk. Thanks for reporting the issue, it does help. Even if resources are prioritised and it takes time to get seen. I'm actually looking forward to the bug accelerator program, we got three people some money to fix some of these issues for 1.4. So some resources are moving towards the biggest needs. @doctormo Looking forward to giving 1.4 a whirl then π Aye, have found snaps to be very hit and miss... I like how they're automatically updated but when the snap doesn't let you access your file system it's all a bit pointless π |

What would you change in Inkscape's ux if you could change one thing to make it better?
