------- Additional comments from nic...@openoffice.org Tue Jun 15 14:22:51 +0000 2010 ------- >From an end-user's perspective, I'd like to be able to cleanly import a vector graphic into OO-Impress and be able to "break" that object into its elements so I can use a sequence of animations to build up a technical diagram. Importing SVG should be the logical way of achieving this, but the current SVG import filter struggles with basic issues like: 1) text disappears (but reappears in the wrong location after a "break" operation") 2) open paths become closed 3) even a simple 2-point path seems to be constructed as a filled closed path of its outline (rather than a 2-point path with the correct width, arrowheads, etc). These aren't advanced things like opacity, gradients, etc (which the OO Wiki specifies as unsupported features), but are pretty fundamental attributes of vector graphics (simple paths, etc). I get slightly better results by doing a ".odg" export from Inkscape (although open paths still become closed, arrowheads are lost) and the imported graphic still needs a lot of manual fixing each time. This is frustrating enough that I'd be forced back to Microsoft Windows/Powerpoint/Visio (if I could afford it!). --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
