This nearly five years old awful bug is still present in Inkscape 1.0 (1.0+r73+1). This is a show-stopper and render Inkscape useless for scientific use. Too bad.

Confirmed again (as #30) for 0.92.4 on Ubuntu 18.04. The workaround shown by #5 and #26 is to have the 'Text and Font...' box closed all the time – even at startup. You can at least use the tools in top menu bar.

[Bug 1491064] Re: Text editing very slow in 0.91 on files with many objects, normal in 0.48
lacking any experience with GTK, I had a quick peek at the source and noticed that the text-tool calls sp_event_context_update_cursor in the input event processing quite a bit, whereas select-tool does not do that. Instead, select-tool calls gdk_window_set_cursor(window,...) in the GDK_ENTER_NOTIFY and GDK_LEAVE_NOTIFY events (which are not handled by text-tool at all). Sorry if I am sending people on a goose-chase here.

[Bug 1491064] Re: Text editing very slow in 0.91 on files with many objects, normal in 0.48
I have the same issue with inkscape 1.0beta1 (fe3e306, 2019-09-17) installed via snap on Ubuntu 18.04. But I noticed something potentially interesting though: for me, the *slowdown only happens when the mouse cursor is inside the inkscape window*. Steps to reproduce: 1) Load a sufficiently complex file that displays slow text editing. 2) hit F1 (selection tool) and click on a text element 3) move the mouse cursor *outside the inkscape window* 4) hit F8 (text tool) and edit the text element via keyboard only (it's very fast for me) 5) hit F1 again 6) move mouse cursor back into inkscape window This procedure makes text editing quite fast again. The slowdown is recovered if step 3) is omitted. Perhaps this can help to point towards the cause, maybe something with updating the mouse cursor style (from arrow to text-cursor) is inadvertantly checking for potential overlap with *all* text elements? Just my 2 cents. Hope this helps in nailing this bug down.

[Bug 1491064] Re: Text editing very slow in 0.91 on files with many objects, normal in 0.48
The only reason I cannot recommend Inkscape as a replacement for Adobe Illustrator for scientific figures and posters is this bug, now 4 years old. Even the solution of locking the offending objects on different layers does not work all the time. With many objects, Inkscape (0.92.4 on Ubuntu 18.04), is unable to perform the move to a new layer. I searched for alternatives to Inkscape and none of the ones that are open source is able to import correctly the svg files generated from R. The only solution I currently have is to raterize part of the plots and use the uneditable bitmaps in Inkscape. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1491064 Title: Text editing very slow in 0.91 on files with many objects, normal in 0.48 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/1491064/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1491064] Re: Text editing very slow in 0.91 on files with many objects, normal in 0.48
My workaround for making scientific posters is to use different layers for different parts of the poster, and to lock all layers except for the part of the poster I'm currently editing text in. This seems to deal with most of the slow-down when using no layers, but is does make editing more difficult due to the need to continually lock and unlock layers.
