------- Additional comments from micha...@openoffice.org Wed Jun 3 11:18:32 +0000 2009 ------- Being able to edit texts (or move objects around) during presentation is of critical importance for professional presenters who like to keep their audience awake by interacting with them. I am lecturer and like the "church people" we lecturers probably generally hate to present like playing a slideshow and reading a preformulated text. For people who need restraints to feel more secure during presentation time, it might be helpful to be able to turn the live features off. Actually I used another presenter (active slide) for quite some time, which allowed for full interactivity by marking the object property "editable at run time", but -among other problems- since the developers of that software ceased to support it any further(and worse - violated backwards compatibility) switching to a mainstream "powerpoint clone" like impress was unfortunately(?) necessary. Please - dear developers - allow yourself to surpass powerpoint in this important point. I personally wouldn't mind ending up with a presenter that is less compatible with microsoft in the long run and doesn't reproduce each and any powerpoint feature. Although I know you might be scolded for that by part of the community. Powerpoint is not a good piece of software after all! It lures you into adapting a bad presentation style. All of my votes for enhanced interactivity!!! regards micha137 --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
