Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 6298
insert fct. is not working optimally (with graphics)
Last modified: 2003-09-08 16:55:29 UTC
- Windows Meta Files (WMF) are "insertable", but their standard size is smaller than the original size from which the WMF came from -- I don't know whether the WMF-(windows-clipboard-)format allows to access this data, but anyway, the standard size should be bigger - Bitmaps which wait in the windows clipboard can't be inserted as meta-file + the standard insert method for waiting bitmaps is "metafile" though, so that one has to long click on insert icon to open content-type to be inserted (excuse english, you know what is meant) * in Calc a warning appears, that clipboard content can't be inserted, when (normally of course) clicking on insert icon * in Writer just nothing happens - inserted (always "insert icon - bitmap-format" fct. I am talking about) bitmaps in Calc look "unsharp"; in Writer they are sharp. They are printed as "sharp" (or "normal") however from Calc as from a graphics app.. some things I don't know where to send to (could you report these issues to the correct people?) : - were the 'print' and 'print directly' icon always the same (because currently they are and I thought they weren't once and I have the feeling that other icons also change) - graphics editing functionality is lacking on the interaction side with apps such as spreadsheet and on Draw itself. Draw is not as easy (and not as powerful I've got the feeling) to handle as Paintshop Pro, so that I am using that app. to do my bitmap manipulations I need to do to insert bitmaps into Calc; that's not efficient for small tasks when wanting to do some work. So the Draw-functionality (incl. o.c. interact. with oth. app.s ...) should be improved - could you redirect this information to relevant people for consideration ? - (O.K. this one goes to www-issues; but I don't want to create a new issue now) one is logged off from OO.org when changing website though not exiting browser -- cookies should therfore be alive during whole time browser is open and could actually be permantently saved because I don't want to log-in every time! or implement a log-in field on the "enter issue" page - that's convenient when coming from a direct link through an e-mail ragarding ones issues !
Hi Lars, Please write one Issue for one case. Hi Falko, some 4 u Frank
should I put some or more in the Draw-app. issue category?
Use the appropriate component for your Issues. Drawing for all graphics Chart for Charts and so on. It must be done in this way otherwise we can't handle such things in a fast and correct way. Frank
OK - I was always uncertain because it was partly spreadsheet specific and I didn't know whether draw was for Draw app. only - so I'm doing 4 draw issues - if you want me not to (bec. you've redirected already), I'm waiting 7 minutes from 23 min. past current fullhour
Hi Lars, It's not necessary for the submitted Issues. But for future ones. Have a nice weekend. Frank

this issue had been split into several others; it is not needed anymore therefore. *** This issue has been marked as a duplicate of 6299 ***
closing therefore
