Wipe effects do allow for very functional animation (not just animation "for the show"), for example in having an arrow appear: an arrow to the right is very effectively presented with a "wipe right" effect. Elements of for example an organigram would appear most effectively with a wipe down effect when they are located downwards the current element, or a wipe right if they are added to the right of the current object. An interpolation on an xy diagram could very effectively and didactically be presented using (starting from the x-axis) a "wipe up" of a vertical line, followed by a "wipe left" of an arrow to the left. The current version of Impress has all the tools to realize this - except for the wipe animation effects. As I illustrated, the wipe effect allows for functonal, didactic effects, and therefore is more important and usefull than many other "flashy" effects. As there is a "Wipe up" effect, it should not be unrealistic to implement also other wipe effects. Current animation features of Impress would also allow to have a --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
