Well, if you had taken the time you spent writing your latest comment
and spent it instead on inspecting the information provided on the web
page of the report, you would have realized that the state of this
report is 'Fix Comitted' and _not_ 'Fix Released' - the next major
release will ship without that label (0.49).

The project 'Inkscape' is not maintaining nor developing the web interface to 
the bug tracker hosted by launchpad.net.

Title:
  "Affect:" toolbar label should be renamed/removed

Status in Inkscape: A Vector Drawing Tool:
  Fix Committed
Status in “inkscape” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: inkscape

  The tool controls bar for the Select tool contains a button group with
  the label "Affect:".  This label is inappropriate for a couple of
  reasons:

  1. False implication that the buttons apply some sort of visual effect
  (blur, noise etc).  The buttons actually control the effects of
  scale/move operations on borders, gradients and patterns.

  2. Grammatical inconsistency.  Most (perhaps all?) other toolbar
  labels are nouns for the related property ("Width:", "Force:", "Angle
  X" etc).  "Affect:" is a verb.

  It would make sense to either remove the label or replace it with a
  suitable noun for the property being adjusted (maybe something like
  "Scale/move properties:" but less verbose!)
