A thing I do every single time I use #Inkscape and decide to swap to a new document for whatever reason:
- Open old document and work for a bit
- Open new document that I'm going to switch to working on
- Hit "Quit" on old document
- Both documents close, all of Inkscape has quit not just the old Window.
I really hate Inkscape's UX more than almost any other software I use regularly. Whomever put the "Close" button literally right next to the "Quit" button and made them do different things is my nemesis.
