------- Additional comments from baedami...@openoffice.org Sun Dec 12 10:52:23 +0000 2010 ------- I want to use OpenOffice Impress in the classroom, and therefore I have different needs than for example a salesperson. Maybe an example is the best way of understanding my problem: I have a gapped text in the students' textbook, the gaps are numbered from let's say 1-15. There is one word per gap. When doing this in class, I need a slide which shows the correct solutions one after another. With a table, such a transparency is easily and quickly made. I just insert a table with 2 colums and 15 rows, type the numbers in one colum and the words in the other column. Doing a fake table for this type of task (with simple textboxes that simply look like a table when put together) is much more time-consuming, and for one lesson I usually need 3-5 of those transparencies, and given that I have 6 lessons a day, of course it makes a difference if making such a slide takes me 5 minutes or just half a minute... It is vital in classroom usage that the solutions are displayed one after another, and it is vital for the clearness of the slide that there is not just the text but that it's there in a table. I tried it with normal textboxes. There, you can even select one word after another and add an effect for each single word. Would it be possible to implement this feature for tables as well? so I could for example select one row of the table and add an effect for this row? --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
