Eyal Rozenberg <[email protected]> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Depends on| |152079 --- Comment #5 from Eyal Rozenberg <[email protected]> --- (In reply to Mike Kaganski from comment #3) While this is of course not at all my call, I would say: Get things right internally, then change or add to the APIs. > Another issue is the unit that we should use for our coordinates (which is > very important when speaking about extending the API). We use integers with > 1/100ths of a mm in the API; and we use either twips (Writer, Calc), or > 1/100ths of mm (Impress/Draw) in the model. In case of Writer/Calc, that > adds more conversion errors; but most importantly, that's not a good enough > precision. So there are both the issues of precision, and the choice of units... Anyway, this is a throwback to bug 152079. I suppose we can make this bug depend on that one. > Of course, this would introduce a transitional > period of having an API using EMUs, and internally still using old units... Don't you mean the other way around?
