Priority: medium
Bug ID: 58916
Assignee: [email protected]
Summary: Unexpected behavior on slide pane
Severity: normal
Classification: Unclassified
OS: Mac OS X (All)
Reporter: [email protected]
Hardware: x86 (IA32)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Version: unspecified
Component: Presentation
Product: LibreOffice
I have been a regular user of LO Impress for years, and have had a great
experience overall. However, there is one annoyance, which I shall upgrade to a
nuisance. I have seen the trail regarding this "non-bug", and completely
disagree with the explanation given. I quote my background as a biz school prof
who relies heavily on presentations, as my locus standi.
There are three unnecessary buttons for every slide on the slide pane. Has this
been democratically arrived at, or is it developer gold-plating? (Please see
Steve McConnell's insights on this).
If this is the latter, then it is NOT needed. If I really need to copy a slide,
I have my familiar right click mechanism at hand (literally!). The half-visible
icons get selected at whim when I plan to shuffle slides, and what follows is
hugely unexpected. It copies the slide, follows the cursor as I aim to shuffle,
and dumps the slide when I stop.
To the developer who will comes to the defence of this "feature," please bear
in mind that I'm the end user, and you are the developer. One of us is hugely
right. No guesses as to who.
