Description akknoepfel 2004-05-21 15:29:51 UTC 
Polygons with rounded corners should be supported. Today it already is possible
to change the corner radius of rectangles using the 'position and size' dialog
and then switching to the 'slant & corner radius' tab. This dialog can be
openend for polygons too, but the corner radius settings are disabled.
Constructing lots of polygons with rounded corners by hand, using arcs and lines
or connectors can become a very annoying job. Yet some types of technical
diagrams do require that style (for instance FMC plans -
http://fmc.hpi.uni-potsdam.de) and this feature really helps to improve layout.
Comparisons with VISIO show, that such a feature would significantly help to
improve performance when creating those graphics.

OOo2.0.2rc4 offers a lot of shapes with rounded corners.
Feel free to reopen it if this is not the case.

Thank you.

The functionality of OOo2.0.2rc4 is fine, however it does not address this
special requirement. The challenge is to create any kind of polygon or zigzag
line with rounded corners as illustrated in the example. Solving this task by a
predefined set of shapes, is virtually impossible: Looking at the example, you
will find that one cannot create this drawing by using the predefined shapes.

So problems remains as originally described. Such a feature would greatly
enhance the power of OpenOffice.

Thank you.

Please rename this issue to "polygons with rounded sides"; there is already
support for "polygons with rounded corners" via the "Position and Size" dialog.

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