- Style settings that would permanently break when changed (changing the style back to what it was before would not fix it).
- TOC links that stopped working
- TOC items that disappeared
- Inconsistent alignment (where the same style would be off by a few pixels on different pages)
- Inconsistent page headers (where some elements would not show, depending on how many pages you have)
- Scripting that yields different visual results each time you run it (this is where I gave up)
- Disappearing cells
- Mysterious blank pages that you can't delete without breaking everything else using the same page style
- Inconsistent results when printing (what you print is not what the document shows)
This is using purely native document formats, not cross-format. Just before giving up, I downloaded the source code to see what was breaking (in the scripting). And then I understood.
I can't remember what issues I had with Inkscape since it was awhile ago. I only remember being aggravated enough to invest time in learning a replacement tool and redoing all my work.
Gimp has tons of UI bugs as well (rectangle select gets stuck in subtract mode, for example), but so far nothing quite bad enough that it can't be fixed by saving, restarting, reloading.
