@Kirby, you might wish to consider reading the entire thread above, since there have been a number of very interesting points raised, indicating that the 'correct' answer is not entirely clear cut. In any event, this has been fixed in the Inkscape trunk, which is the development version. The fix

It is now four years later. I recently discovered Inkscape, and have begun using it to edit SVG images. And this afternoon I was finally so annoyed by the "Affect" label that I reported it as a bug in need of fixing. I was soon notified that I was reporting a duplicate of this error, Bug #590686

The label doesn't add anything useful for the user, since there is no real "grouping" that implies a group label. Users have to read the tooltips to understand what each button does. I vote the drop the label. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which

The "Affect:" label is: (a) Grammatically inconsistent... (all/most other toolbar labels are nouns) (b) Sylistically inconsistent... (toolbar labels are pretty rare. The icons, tooltips and layout should speak for themselves) (c) Uninformative... (what is affecting what?) (d) Redundant... (the to

I agree with Tom McNickell: either i) remove it or ii) change it to "Effect". Retaining the label "Affect" makes no sense and looks very wrong to a native English speaker. Looking at the tooltips, these do seem to be "effects". Peter -- You received this bug notification because you are a member
