# Text Ghoster
Placing text labels can sometimes be difficult for dense or small plots. The Text Ghoster adds a blurry semi-transparent background to text, allowing it to be legible without obscuring the underlying data.

# Combine by Color
If you have used Inkscape for editing plots with thousands of elements, you have probably found that it behaves sluggishly. Often, this can be solved by combining paths of the same color together into a single path, but when your plot has multiple curves then you have to select the elements belonging to different curves separately. Combine by Color simplifies this, automatically fusing paths of the same style together. Not only does this tend to improve responsiveness, but typically it will also reduce the file size of the output.

Always find yourself scrolling to select the *same* set of arrows in the Fill and Stroke menu? Favorite Markers lets you designate certain marker sets as favorites, allowing you to add them more conveniently. You can also adjust their size.

# Problems?
These extensions are very well-tested on PDFs imported using Inkscape's internal importer. However, there is an ocean of potential issues that can arise when they are used with arbitrary SVGs. I fix bugs all the time, so make sure you have the latest version first. If the bug persists, please make a new Issue and include (a) the SVG that caused it, (b) a copy of any error message, and (c) the debug information (found under Help > About Inkscape... > Bug icon). In the meantime, try converting the SVG to a PDF and importing it—that should fix many issues.
