Other functionalities that could benefit are: - rotating pictures in Writer (open issue) - split screen in Writer like in Calc (open issue) - Gradients management availability in all the components - outline view like in Impress for Writer (open issue) - common syntax between Calc formulas and Writer table formulas - Calc formulas available in Writer (and Impress?) - table styles like in Impress in Writer - revision marks in Impress (open issue) - character style in Impress (open issue) - Macro recorder in Impress - Crop images in Impress (extensions exist for that) Cheers, Michele --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
