------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Wed Sep 14 04:56:48 -0700 2005 ------- When pasting an alien object from the clipboard in impress/draw, the default is to insert an ole object. In most cases this is not what the user wants as he may only be interested in the visual content of what he pasted. f.e. often users on windows copy a picture from microsoft paint and insert it. The result is an ole object wich uses more storage and system resources as a simple image would. Additionaly, if the object from clipboard only contains one pixel bitmap, it will be pasted as a pixel bitmap and not as a metafile as an optimization. see http://specs.openoffice.org/appwide/clipboard_drag_and_drop/ImpressClipboard.odt for a specification For drag and drop the behaviour should be the same as for clipboard. The writer application already inserts objects as metafiles per default. If the user likes to have the old behaviour to insert an object, he has to use "paste special" now. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
