Summary: Auto fit canvas to drawing
Severity: enhancement
Classification: Unclassified
OS: All
Reporter: [email protected]
Hardware: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Version: unspecified
Component: Libreoffice
Product: LibreOffice
In Libreoffice Draw, there is no way to auto fit the canvas size to the
drawing. One has to painstakingly manually set the width and height until it
encompasses the whole drawing through several trial and error runs.
This is a major drawback to the software, since it is a use case that I need to
perform every time I make a drawing: Upon finishing the drawing, I would want
the canvas to be as big as the drawing.
Feature request: Put an "Auto fit canvas to drawing" button that sets the
canvas dimensions to the nearest rectangle that fits the whole drawing.
Alternative: Make the canvas automatically follow the drawing (call above
function whenever something is changed).
Alternative: Loose / hide the canvas complexity entirely. It's either an
implementation detail that the user does not need to know about when drawing,
or it's a relic from the days we used paper, which had finite bounds.
The only time I may indeed have to worry about the canvas is when dealing with
limited space, e.g., printing to finite sized paper.
