I've started reading the tutorials for Inkscape and I am delighted. It has a well-thought-out conceptual model, a clean and powerful interface, and attention to keyboard accessibility.
The one thing I can't seem to find is documentation on the connection point tool. Where is it? How do I add connection points so arrows attach to the edges of objects instead of their centers?
Use the *Connector tool*. https://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/Connector_tool_tutorial
@peterdrake I also like it can save to an XML file
@peterdrake I suppose I should try it again. I despise modern Adobe, but I'm an illustrator power user, and I thought Inkscape was absolutely terrible - but I bailed on it about 3 years ago. Hopefully it has improved some. I found it very, very, very buggy
