Pasting on top of slected - Pools results

Options

We present users with A and B behaviors and ask them which one would they expect ezgif.com-gif-maker__2_

Who voted in this

Mostly people who already users are already familiar with working with Inkscape so there is baize to keep current behavior because they are used to it

Conclutions

Most of the users we talked to said this would be a very useful feature. But some workflows prefer to use always past on top ( mostly for duplicating ). IMHO I would say this should get in (Inkscape) and be default behavior which can be turned off in preferences (to original behavior)

probably most useful implementation fo this feature would look like this image

Actionable steps

We could do another User testing with a protocol which would look like this:

  • Give user build of Inkscape with B behavior inkscape!2476 (merged)
  • explain how pasting on to of selected works (not sure if we should or should not do this step )
  • Ask subjects to try to make A look like a B
  • observe
  • Ask subject to try to make C look like D
  • observe
