Agreed! Looks great, but I did immediately click the pencil to doodle and was disappointed nothing happened. When I created a new document and tried to use the pencil nothing happened. I never figured out how to use it. I tried the Bezier tool and was able to add some nodes but was not able to manipulate them with any of the tools. Maybe dragging is entirely broken on Chrome/Windows?

To select nodes I needed to click on the path in the "Objects" outline on the left side of the screen. Then I could switch to the Nodes tool and select nodes. But after that I can't drag nodes either. Firefox/Linux, so probably something is actually broken not just a compat issue.

Clicking on the path to select them with the Node tool or the Select tool doesn't seem reliable. The Select tool never works, and the Nodes tool I need to click near the nodes (which are invisible) and if I click too fast while searching it thinks I double-clicked and switches to the Select tool.

Maybe some of this makes some sense to the author, and a fix can be forthcoming.
