I often need to take a bitmap (.png) image, and draw some lines or text on top of it, and possibly export a new, thusly "annotated" image.
I know I can basically do all this in inkscape - but inkscape is a complex program, and it needs almost a minute to start up properly on my PCs.
So I was thinking - is there something like a "mini" vector editor for Linux, which would start up fast, and allow me to:
Right-click, open an image in this editor program
The program scales the active "document"/"window size" to the size of the image
I can zoom in/zoom out (and possibly crop) the image
I can add at least lines, boxes and text in different colors?
A bonus for me would be to have the overlay graphics saved as SVG format, say with the same filename as the image - as in, "image.png.svg" being saved in the same directory where the original "image.png" is located (thus allowing opening and editing these "annotations" further, either in this editor, or possibly in inkscape). And another bonus would be the export of the annotated image to a bitmap.
Anyone know about anything like this?
