Re: [libreoffice-users] Flipping a figure 90 degree

2011-04-09 Thread Jet Ong
Hi,
The extension did not work in my LibreOffice. I think I would just have to
follow the old way, rotating the picture in a Draw and
paste it on LibreOffice

The extension says it's only compatible up to OpenOffice 2.3. I can't get it
to work on LO 3.3.2

Hi,
I still haven't understood if OOo extensions work with LibreOffice 
(though I suppose they do) anyway maybe this one can help you...

Unbelievable! That's one of the most common things to do with a picture,
isn't it? You can easily do it in Draw and then copy it into Writer, but
that's also an extra step.


Why does a word processor needs the capabilities of an image editing 
program?




I wonder why things behave differently in different pieces of the suite.
They talk about how great it is with object oriented programming and
that everything so easily can be made to behave the same way everywhere
and things like that. What happened to that? Seems like they tried to
invent the wheel at least twice here…


They behave differently because they are indeed different. The picture 
inserted in Writer is a GraphicObject (a SwXTextGraphicObject) and the 
picture copied from Draw is a Shape (a SwXShape).


They are designed to behave different. With a GraphicObject you get: 
ImageMap, Contour, Graphic Style. With a Shape you get rotation and 
shearing.




If Writer just inherited all Draw stuff, then they could drop Draw
completely, couldn't they?


A Writer-document has an associated drawing page, where all the drawing 
objects lay. But that is not the essential part of a Writer-Document. 
And the GraphicObject does not belong to the drawing page.


Because a GraphicObject is very different from a Shape rotation needs to 
be implemented separately. LO does not have its own issue for it, in OOo 
it is the enhancement request

 http://openoffice.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3545

Is it really to much effort to use an image editing program to rotate 
the picture before inserting it in the Writer document?


Kind regards
Regina

[libreoffice-users] Flipping a figure 90 degree

2011-04-09 Thread Jet Ong
As far as I know, LibreOffice does not allow this feature. Thus, I will have
to flip my figure in the Photo Viewer,
save it and open it in Libreoffice. My figure will then become flipped in
the LibreOffice page.

The question now is how do I adjust my caption to remain just above the
table?

Thanks
Jet
