    Hi,

    I have used Shift+Ctrl+D to open up document properties to primarily reset the canvas size. Since yesterday, the document properties window won't pop up. Since then I tried several times, uninstalled and reinstalled the software. Also reset Preferences under "System". But no luck. 

     

    Inkscape 1.4 (86a8ad7, 2024-10-11)

                          Compile  (Run)
        GLib version:     2.82.1
        GTK version:      3.24.43 (3.24.43)
        glibmm version:   2.66.7
        gtkmm version:    3.24.9
        libxml2 version:  2.12.9
        libxslt version:  1.1.42
        Cairo version:    1.18.2 (1.18.2)
        Pango version:    1.54.0 (1.54.0)
        HarfBuzz version: 10.0.1 (10.0.1)

        OS version:       Windows 11 23H2

    Could someone help me please? Attached is a sample document, but not sure if that will regenarate the issue. Is there any other way to reset the canvas to match an imported image size? Thanks

    I'm having this issue as well. Before that, if I had 2 files open, document properties would make the two windows jump back and forth. I think document properties got Y2K'd 😂

    I found the answer in another post. Press the F12 key on your keyboard!
