Hi all, I have a lot more experience with Powerpoint 2007 than I have with LO Impress. One of the habits I brought from Powerpoint was flicking through slides while in design mode by pressing the Up and Down arrow keys. I immediately noticed that this doesn't work in Impress because the arrow keys are used to scroll up and down in the slide design window. That led me to ask the question; why is there a huge amount scrollable white space surrounding the slide in the Impress slide design window? In Powerpoint the window is 'fitted' to the slide but in Impress there is roughly 800 pixels of empty padding to the left and right of the slide and there is about 300 - 400 pixels of empty padding above and below the slide. I was considering filing a bug for this because I think it would be helpful for Powerpoint converts to abolish this empty space and free the Up and Down arrow keys for cycling through the slides. However, I thought it might be better to ask the question here first since I don't know the functional reason why this space exists or whether it's necessary.
Impress experts, what are your thoughts on this? Is this worthy of a bug report?
