Armin Le Grand <armin.le.gr...@me.com> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |armin.le.gr...@me.com --- Comment #1 from Armin Le Grand <armin.le.gr...@me.com> --- ALG: This is a valid idea, but the only diffrence between 'Patterns' and bitmap fills is that the pattern bitmap is 8x8, 2 colors. Or the other way around: There exists no 'pattern fill'. If we define it to be that, it might be possible but is special treatment of bitmaps because of their format (see above) a good thing? This exceptin treatment would have to be done in all renderers, exporters, print preparations, slideshows and probably other places (as would be necessary if we would really define a new fillstyle). Checked MS, there PatternFill is an own, independent FillStyle. The object is filled with the pattern repeating (no choice to not repeat or to zoom), only pixel-orientated (when scaling the shape, just more of the pattern is shown, it does not zoom with the object. When scaling the page, the same happens. The pattern is aligned to the available pixels). I was curious and checked their printer preview (when printing you *have* to decide in which resolution to apply that pattern fill), but in printer preview and zooming they still do not zoom the content with the object, so this cannot give a valid/realistic print preview which would depend on printer resolution. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
