OK, my font name example was not very good. Still, remembering recent widths does not prevent from keeping a sorted list of most used widths. When there are no recently used widths the list can contain just a list of initial standard widths. If the user sticks to these standard widths, the list will never be updated. If the user starts using his own widths, these can start entering the list. An alternative can be assuring that line widths that are used in defined styles always appear in the line properties panel. > We did the same thing with the distance field > in the shadow content panel > (bug 87702). Line width is a completely different matter from shadow IMHO. Shadows are mostly a decorative item. Line widths are associated to the semantics of lines in many contexts and are standardized as such. While there is no drawing that *must* use certain shadow sizes, there are many different situations where a drawing *must* use certain line widths. If these widths cannot be put on the line properties panel, then the panel interface becomes useless (and as such, just a large loss of screen space). > The sidebar never provides complete access to all features. Neither did the toolbar. But it is strange to see that the sidebar provides far less features that the venerable line and filling toolbar, that at least allowed one to pick larger or thinner line widths with steppings based on the current measurement unit or to enter arbitrary line widths with the keyboard. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
