Ok, I understand and you've done a really great work with this application, but that was however a usefull and used functionnality for Impress users :)

In my 6 years of StarOffice and later OpenOffice I haver never seen one single customer document that used layers in impress. But its always the case that each user only needs 10% of all available features but each user has a different 10% that he uses.

yes :)

Currently everyone hypes Apples Keynote for its ease of use and they
have currently no more than 5% of functionality and features that
impress offers.

Can you please explain why your presentations become *unusable* ?

Currently all objects that were on different hidden layers in 1.1.x are displayed in one layer and can be edited in 2.0bc. This make a compatibility issue between 1.1.x and 2.0 presentation.

Ok, so what is the use case for hidden objects in a presentation? You can't make them visible during a presentation. Do you want to switch between them in edit mode? Doesn't it make more sense to create different pages?

As I speak for users in FR community, I'll ask them and will come back with their feedback.



Currently I see that there is a compatibility issue, but I also see a workaround for such things. But if one can explain what the real use case for layers in a presentation is, we can thing of ways to offer such functionality more presentation oriented than the drawing oriented way of the old layer implementation.

Ok, thanks for this. I'll translate your mails and ask for their comments and needs.
Kind regards
Sophie
