Overview
Certain objects in Inkscape have special properties, and are not edited as a typical path. Text objects and Live Shapes need to be converted with the Object To Path to be edited with the Node tool the same as a path created with the Pen, Pencil or Caligraphy tool. Text that has been converted with the Object To Path command is no longer edited with the text tool, and a Live Shape that is converted to a path is no longer edited with a Live Shape tool, and the node tool only affects the selected nodes.
