--- Comment #5 from Eyal Rozenberg <[email protected]> --- I was about to argue the details, but this whole method doesn't even work. Suppose you take a square, copy it, rotate the copy by 45 degrees, and take the fragmentation. The number of regions is now 9, not 3. How would you address this? (In reply to Regina Henschel from comment #3) > The effort is 1 minute. Let's grant that for the moment (even though it can't even be done at all in the general case, it seems). So, 1 minute for 3 regions, or 20 seconds per region. Let's even say it's much lower - just 5 seconds per region, since I'm kind of quick and experienced. Or 15 seconds in total. Easy peasy. Now I have, say, 10 shapes selected. How many regions are there in the fragmentation? You saw my example above. It's not even as low as 2^10! It's probably something like the product of all numbers of edges of the shapes, perhaps minus 1? So, 10 rectangles - maybe... 3^10 or so. How much time would that take me to do manually? (In reply to Heiko Tietze from comment #4) > You could also put the couple of commands into a macro. Really? Please sketch out the code for that macro. For the general case of N shapes of course. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
