Bug ID: 147346
Summary: simplify gallery usage
Product: LibreOffice
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: UI

If you want to make an LibO Gallery there are two options:
1. you draw the gallery item with shapes within LibO and move them to the
gallery
2. you add an image file to the gallery
If you draw an gallery item with shapes, the drawing was stored in an binary
block. To edit it, you have to move the gallery item from the gallery to the
drawing area, edit it delete the item from the gallery and add it again.
It would be way easier (and without binary block), to save the drawing as .odg
file in the gallery folder together with the images and by edit the .odg file,
the gallery item was updated.
So at the end you have .odg files (eat your own dogfood) which you preview in
the gallery (code from the welcome page). By copy file to the correct folder,
the user can edit the gallery.
Label of the gallery item can be the group name of the gallery item (like you
show in the navigator) or the filename, when no groupname was available.
Pictures, Audio, Video can be stored native OR within an .odg file. So you have
full flexibility and easy to maintain.
