RE: OUString is mutable?

In the WinRT APIs (not to be confused with the Windows RT on Atom) introduced with Windows 8, strings are immutable. I suspect that hardware features may be exploited to ensure that they stay that way. I haven't got my head around how that works with the still-supported BSTR at the native le

RE: ODF angle in draw:transform are in degrees

@Regina, Thanks. I agree that the transform case needs to be taken up also. My sense is that there is agreement that there should be transposition to SVG with attention to migration and down-level compatibility issues. I also agree that the situation with existing ODF 1.0/../1.2 documents and

RE: ODF angle in draw:transform are in degrees

The proposal that Regina brought to the ODF TC is safer. It does not depend on attempting to identify the producer. (In fact, the ODF specification says that the generator identification is *not* to be used in this manner. It is also unreliably used.) The idea is to face reality and affirm t

RE: Definition of draw:angle in ODF1.2 does not fit to implementation

There appear to be three considerations: 1. What is type and unit of draw:angle in the element? In ODF 1.0, ODF 1.1, and ISO/IEC 26300:2006 (now aligned with ODF 1.1), the type is integer and there is no explanation of the scale of the unit. ODF 1.2 gives special attention to the integer

Re: [Libreoffice] default ODF encryption/checksum algorithms changed in master. Good thing ?
