------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Wed Mar 2 09:24:37 -0800 2005 ------- AW: I discussed with CL, and his interpretation of the usage of svg:viewBox is that it is there to support user coordinate systems by hiding the measurement system from the polygon definition (like in svg). All 4 values of x,y,width and height may be in different measurement units, so that's where the viewBox comes into play. It allows to define the polygon data itself without measurement units. In svg, it also clips the polygon data, but we cannot do that in OOo/SO. This still opens the problem when the viewBox range is not fully used, e.g. viweBox(0,0,100,100) and a line (50,50 100,100). Since the draw object has to be the same size as the polygon data, this may make a modification of the object psoition and size valid. When the polygon data is overlapping the viewBox range, clipping would be necessary to do it like svg. Since we cannot do display clipping here, it would be geometric clipping -> changes polygon definition and produces edges at the object bounds. Also not good. So, maybe for all involved stuff, (a) maybe indeed best. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
