Hi Astron, First - thanks for the great feedback.

Sounds good to me - hopefully there is -some- discoverable way to forcibly re-size those though. I suspect this "keep ratio" option is reasonably hard to find. Interesting, setting "Keep Ratio" on an object in the options page has no effect at all on user sizing it (it seems) ;-) I can still stretch it as much as I like once outside that dialog - although the setting is persisted. How about; if "keep ratio" is set - we make the image corner scale with that ratio by default, but still allow the side handles to re-size it ? > Sadly, there seem to be no news from Federico's attempt to change > the Drawing toolbar (Christoph first mentioned better status bar > information there, I think). AFAICS his work was run into the ground by over-much feedback, not all of it positive :-) [ and now he is working on sexy UI things in GNOME Shell / Zeitgeist AFAICS ]. Anyhow - just to split the mails up so we can reach a clear conclusion quicker. I love your idea to re-use "keep ratio" (it is worth checking if this is serialized in the file format for objects too I guess, or if this is some UI artifact). Thanks, Michael. -- michael.me...@suse.com <><, Pseudo Engineer, itinerant idiot _______________________________________________ Libreoffice-ux-advise mailing list Libreoffice-ux-advise@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-ux-advise
