--- Comment #2 from Aidar <ai...@outlook.com> ---
@Bouvjaga, thank you for the super useful tip regarding the “Navigator”, it
saved the day!

Indeed, a toggle that “protects” presentations from permanent PEN markings,
frees a user from this issue would be a perfect solution.

Using the “Navigator” tool that you recommended, one discovers that small
contiguous "Mouse pointer as pen" drawing is not a single artifact, but
contains 400 distinct objects. Could be thousands in bigger PEN drawings
(screenshot attached).
Indeed, "Navigator" seems like the perfect way to surgically choose them all,
to delete an unnecessary, accidentally saved PEN drawing from a complex
presentation.

>From UX perspective, for technically unsavvy users, perhaps, an easier,
specialized way should exist specifically for PEN presentation drawings, maybe
working on top of forthcoming Navigator’s ability to delete all elements of
certain content type that you mentioned.

A naturally ephemeral, imprecise, temporary PEN mouse drawing, it seems, should
not be so sticky, one click away from being almost unremovable from the
presentation, with sheer number of objects, unless a technical tool such as
object Navigator is employed.

Looking forward to the new Navigator feature that already exists in the
LibreOffice Writer that would enable to “get rid of all PEN markers” without
carefully going through all consecutive relevant objects in Navigator,
selecting hundreds of them while watching the selection on WYSIWYG slide, to
ensure no preexisting objects get deleted with temporary (accidentally saved)
PEN markers.
