Bug ID: 101862
Summary: Custom Shapes Creation tedious
Product: LibreOffice
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Draw
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
USER STORY: As an advanced user, I want to create custom shapes shapes to
efficiently create drawings (and/or share them with others)
CURRENT BEHAVIOR: Creation of custom shapes demands to
1. unzip an odg
2. edit the content.xml
3. zip odg.
4. open the odg
For getting feedback on each change. This is rather tedious, in particular when
learning to create shapes and or if minor visual adjustments are needed.
Although custom shapes will only be created by a fraction of users, they can be
used by many and can strengthen the ecosystem (some drawing/diagramming
applications do have many useful libraries to use for special usecases, e.g.
electronics, planning networks or UI wireframing)
POSSIBLE IMPROVED BEHAVIOR:
* One could expose the content.xml source and allow this to be edited, much
like an HTML can be edited in Browser’s dev tools
* Make reloading a file easier (to get around closing Draw, reopening)
* Make accessing the content.xml easier (to get around the zip/unzip part)
Since it will only make sense for some users, these functions could be enabled
via some sort of dev-mode or an extension.
