Description barnett 2004-03-12 21:04:01 UTC 
One thing the presentation component of OpenOffice.org does MUCH BETTER than 
PowerPoint is handle very large data files containing many (perhaps several 
hundred) photographs. However, it doesn't handle these very large files as 
well as I would like. Since the data file is quite large, over a gigabyte in 
some cases, a very long time is needed to open or save the file.

If there was an option to treat the data file like a database where changes 
are written immediately as they are made, there would be no need for the save 
command. This also means that when presenting the presentation there would be 
no need for the lengthy open step, but rather the program could read the 
components from the data file as they are needed for each slide.

To grep the issues easier via "requirements" I put the issues currently lying on
my owner to the owner "requirements".
