--- Comment #17 from Jan-Marek Glogowski <glo...@fbihome.de> --- (In reply to Regina Henschel from comment #12) [info about ODF / SVG representation] I'm not sure, the external representation matters for this bug. But yup - a complex path of different parts (line, curve, arc) can not be constructed in Draw AFAIK, but maybe it's just a hidden feature Armin knows about. It can be done in code, as you can see in the AddPolygonToPath in vcl/qt5/Qt5Graphics_GDI.cxx. Not sure about the arc segment; maybe it's represented as a "fixed" Bézier curve internally. > Problems in the UI: > 1) Using Alt-Click to start a next sequence of points always inserts a > 'closepath' command.

Yup - you need the alternative for "Alt + left-click", as this is the common action to move a window in Linux (Unix?) window managers. In that case you don't need to select the title bar of a window, but can directly start moving the window from the current mouse position. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ Libreoffice-ux-advise mailing list Libreoffice-ux-advise@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-ux-advise
