Only files with uppercase .TpX extensions are treated by the open dialog on Linux. According to https://forum.lazarus.freepascal.org/index.php?topic=22074.0 the correct way to handle this would be

OpenDialog1.Filter :=
  {$ifdef LCLGtk2}
    '*.txt|*.[Tt][Xx][Tt]'; // Gtk2
  {$else}
    '*.txt|*.txt'; // win32/64 and Qt4
  {$endif}

For the save dialog in the future only lowercase .tpx extensions will be allowed to be consistent.

After drawing objects on macos, the canvas is not updated. The next update happens at a paint event triggered by resizing the window or accessing the menu. The issue seems to be related to TViewport.CopyBackBufferRectOnCanvas and that fOnPaint is not assigned there.

• Lines look to thick in default view mode
• Crosshair is not updated correctly / appears sometimes twice or not at all
• Toolbar: UI elements are not wide enough to hold all the text
• Selection of text items is hard since they don't support the full area to be clicked but just a point

Bezier curves underlying curved graphics elements are not drawn at all / or with latest point missing.

The command Shell is not working on Linux and has been commented out for now.

This tool is very useful for patent work on linux with emacs, which is definitely preferable to using something like Word on Windows. A few suggestions (that I am willing to implement but am opening an issue on)

• Prioritizing the linux build, since I doubt windows users have a compelling reason to use this over visio
• The build instructions should be in the README.md, not a sourceforge webpage.
• I should be able to type build and make to get it running.

1. draw also by clicking (not only dragging)
2. snap to shapes (end-points)
3. select text: more anchors than 1 (maybe in the center)
4. define defaults (linewidth, textsize,...) and use them as macro in tikzpicture environment
5. display in math mode $(a+b)$

When I run pdflatex, we get a pdf. But there is too much blank space.

When I only want to insert the PDF, I have to crop it
