------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sat Feb 2 04:43:17 +0000 2008 ------- This is enhanced counterpart of issue 25332 and issue 21253, which are for calc only. The rationale is exactly the same; but the required implementation is slightly different, as explained below: 1. LET THE NOTE BE ANCHORED TO PAGE/PARAGRAPH/CHARACTER. The marker for the note currently behaves as a character in text. (If you insert the note, it gets attached to the line at the current cursor position. If you edit that line, the market moves like a character. If you have a selected an image in the document, you cannot insert a note.) Instead, the marker should be able to behave like an anchored object (which can also behave like a character if the author wants, but has three ADDITIONAL options: anchor to page/paragraph/character). The user can use this feature to position the note in left margin, or over an image. This will allow him to explain the entire paragraph or a specific parts of an image. (Currently this is not possible). 2. LET THE NOTE BE ATTACHED TO ANY SHAPE/IMAGEMAP Let the author attach the note to any shape/image (currently it can be associated only to its own marker). The controls can be like the Imagemap Editor, where the author can select any part of any image and add a note. Later, when the reader hovers his mouse over different parts of the image, he can read different notes. 3. LET THE AUTHOR RESIZE/REPOSITION THE NOTE Note that I am NOT talking of the window that is used by the author to ENTER the note. I am talking of the rectangle that appears with the note when the reader hovers his mouse on the target. Currently the note cannot be resized/repositioned. This is not very annoying at present because the notes are added to text only. But when the two suggestions above are implemented, the notes can get in the way when we want to look at an image. Therefore, it is good to have a control on how the notes will appear when the reader hovers his mouse on the target. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
