I can imagine that another change that's annoying me can be traced to "make it work as MSO". Now there is no Arrows toolbar in Impress. But PowerPoint *do* have an arrow tool. With this change we have lost "dimension lines " in impress.
Have you tried the *Line & Filling* toolbar. I have posted a picture at http://www.openoffice.peschtra.com/line_toolbar.png. The big red arrow points right at it. It is under the standard toolbar. You can do whatever you want with it. For instance, after drawing the red and the turquoise lines (They started as black) I made all of the changes to them with this toolbar!
Try it!
But if you have to add a lot of arrows and other lines without arroheads in a slide , it is more handy to have an icon for Lines (plain lines without decorations and ends), another icon for Arrows and even another for both-ends arrows. 1.1.4 did have separate tools ready to use, and using less screen space!!
I am not saying that you cannot change the appearance of a line a posteriori. Simply that the previous interface was better for this particular task.
What I *DO* say is that it is impossible to draw a "dimensioning line" within 2.0 Impress. What upset me is that the capacity is thre, Draw can do it. Its simply that UI designers or developers has forgotten the Arrows toolbar within Impress.
