Hi, No that's fine, I'll wait for you, I've to implement shadows in impress et draw and once done I could integrate your work easily since I'd know where is the code I need to modify. Let's first start with simple shadow and once we've agreed on a design (borders count, blur and color), I apply the patch that integrates it. If you read the full thread, we're currently in the state you where proposing ("I'd propose having a drop shadow by default and having the option to turn it off, or turn it 'flat'", we don't have the flat option right know, I don't know if having that much options for something as simple as a shadow ('cause I don't think final users would have any idea of the work behind that shadow) is a good thing). The shadow color and width can be easily modified by anybody that has a master build (3 images to change in a .zip and on value in the appearancedialog) to allow finding right values. Again, I'm not a "design guy" so my opinion about this is rather useless, that's why I took some hours to implement configuration to allow you to play with it and come with good value. > > [...] > >> Personally, I would have preferred > >> you to move on to some other fun / high-impact win, rather than > >> getting bogged down in random details here ;-) > > > Please don't expect anything from me.

I don't think Michael intention was to hurt anybody, emails have this drawback that nuances are not correctly rendered. > Someone else will pick it up. Good luck. I sincerely hope that you'll change your mind and provide a good mockup (maybe with a gradient background too, shadows have an alpha channel so we can put anything behind). > -Nik > Sébastien -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to design+h...@libreoffice.org List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/www/design/ *** All posts to this list are publicly archived for eternity ***
