Bug Description
I have a not very complex object composed with 8 ellipses grouped
- I perform a reduce (or raise) the color ("teinte" in french) from the menu extensions > color
- I make a copy of the whole object and do the same on the copied object
- I do that 5 or 6 times. My intention is to have the same object with different colors
- after 5 or 6 times doing that, Inkscape refuses to perform the extension again, my computer is very slow, and Inkscape uses 1,5Go ram.
- I have to close inkscape and open the document again to continue working.
I suppose the problem comes from the fact that all is kept in memory to be able to perform ctrl-z.
Inkscape should flush ram or at least part of the ram in order to let people continue to work.
Could you add information about your platform and Inkscape version?
