If I remember well Adobe just employed this guy for Photoshop and he
put liquid rescale in CS4 - I read some articles about that, so I
think it will be imposibble from now to convince him on any aspect ;)
... but talking about rescale ( for groups or of individual objects )
- can we get something that in Corel Draw is named Add Perpective ? or
some direct tool equivalent with Envelope.
All those tools in Corel (there I have a long experience that's why I
use word "Corel") do a magnificent job transforming vectors in
relation with escape points or in relation with curves/guides of the
envelope model. Also they don't need to transform text in paths to
apply such an effect - envelope or perspective.
In Inkscape 3D tool - I see rectangles are modified using multiple
escape points - but transformation is linear and applied just for
linear segments.
