@Cao Cuong Ngo: Thanks a lot for taking the assignment for rotating images in writer.
Although I am not a programmer, a few hints which might be helpful: As far as I understood, a sane implementation of image rotation depends on the drawing layer in Writer. This drawing layer change seems to be not a trivial task, but Armin Le Grand from Apache OpenOffice has been working for a long time on it in child workspace AW080: http://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Aw080_documentation Also, it might make sense to link with the Apache guy who started working on this: Ericb2 "Implement image rotation and some other existing draw features in Writer" Please see https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OOOUSERS/AOO+4.0+Release+Planning -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to libreoffice in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/87220 Title: [Upstream] Wishlist: Add rotation of images to writer Status in LibreOffice Productivity Suite: In Progress Status in The OpenOffice.org Suite: Unknown Status in “libreoffice” package in Ubuntu: Won't Fix Status in “openoffice.org” package in Ubuntu: Won't Fix Bug description: Binary package hint: openoffice.org Currently when a picture is imported, it is impossible to rotate it. This makes the task of importing images/graphs into OpenOffice unneccessarily difficult and complex. Since OpenOffice already has a gazillion of options about images, it's quite amazing that it cannot rotate them.
