Bug ID: 100596
Summary: Would like to be able to create and edit block arcs
numerically.
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 5.0.6.2 rc
Hardware: All
OS: Linux (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: enhancement
Priority: medium
Component: Draw
Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org
Reporter: mattison.compu...@yahoo.com
I find that creating and modifying a block arc is quite difficult. I actually
could not with reasonable effort get what I wanted. I had to settle for small
triangles over big triangles, and I had to make circles and diameters, and work
off intersections to get something close to what I really wanted. Even for
that, I had to review geometry and trigonometry lessons and use a hand
calculator. The results has overlaps, gaps, and other imperfect matches.
My request is to provide GUIs for creating and editing block arcs. User inputs
would be:
* the coordinates of the center of the block arc;
* the inner radius of the block arc;
* the outer radius of the block arc;
* the orientation (an angle) of one edge of the block arc; and
* the angle through which the block arc extends.
A resolution of 600 dots per inch is common in today's printers; the best have
even finer resolution. So the GUI inputs should retain at least 4 decimal
places.
