I find Fontwork to be really good; compared to WordArt even better in
most ways. I would like being able to rotate by dragging a handle
like in office, and to havea few more gradient options (for many
things) and easier to use color options. (see below)
Also borders (including border art) and shading/background options is
lacking, as is the color options. I like to see several different
color and shade options such as the hexagon and custom pattern in
office as well as the shade intensity selector (or whatever you'd
call that) or even something resembling an html color options chart
would be more helpful than the basic options there are now. What I
would like for shading would be to use the color options with draw
such as gradient, the area options, etc. for backgrounds on the page
as well as the frames (I use frames because it has similar
functionality to the text boxes in publisher). More options for
gradient would be great too, such as to be able to better control the
size of the gradient area (I may want it to fade 1/4 inch from the
edge, or most of the way to the center). What I would like for
borders would be to be able to have simple dashed, dotted etc. lines
as well as border art. Border art as in being able to have a picture
repeat itself for the border, or be able to have a zigzag or other
such continuous pattern around the border.
It would also be convenient to be able to affix a graphic directly to
a frame, so you could get the orientation desired in the frame and
maintain it when the frame is moved. Also to be able to rotate a
frame with a handle like you would with the Fontwork suggestion.
That's my 2 cents on the functionality I would like to see in Ooo
that I currently depend upon publisher for.

You can add new colors hatching and gradients to Draw (Impress)
components. When you edit fills you can add more themes at the last
tabs of that panel. You can can send the edited files from:
/home/<your profilname>/.openoffice.org2/user/config (Linux)
or
documents and settings\<your profilname>\openoffice.org2\user\config
(Windows)
to us.
Also you can send documents with interesting fontwork effects - I can
add it into fontwork gallery - then we might have a chance to get it
into the future releases of OpenOffice.org.

Okay, so if I create some unique fontwork and want to share it, where
would be a good place to send that file? I thought we weren't supposed
to send attachments in the mailing lists. Thanks. -Stephanie
