Re: [libreoffice-design] Re: Streamlining the Photo Album Creator
Hi Mattias, thanks for that, these are good suggestions. Would you create a Whiteboard (https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Design/Whiteboards) for this? Then, after having a good Design discussed and approved by the Design team, a developer could step in and implement those things. Some suggestions you may add to your design: * Choose a background color * Shuffle pictures * Rotate picture Thanks Samuel Am 10.05.2013 21:02, schrieb Mattias Põldaru: Hey, take a look at this one: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/File:Create_photo_album.png Pencil file: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/File:Create_photo_album.ep.zip This one makes a lot more work for the implementator, but it might be worth it. It's mostly standard stuff, but what might be somewhat more costly (as in developer time) is rendering text slides and in-preview text editing. If someone stands up only to implement parts of this, then there is no problem making it simpler if needed. What is different: Image previews, draggable, selectable. Image position per slide. Text slide preview. One more note still, if someone uses widescreen projector (and widescreen presentation), then of course the thumbnails wouldn't be 4:3 but whatever the page settings are for the current document.

I created a page. I don't think adding it to list of what is being worked on is my call. https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Design/Whiteboards/Photo_Album_Creator Then, after having a good Design discussed and approved by the Design team, a developer could step in and implement those things. Some suggestions you may add to your design: * Choose a background color * Shuffle pictures * Rotate picture These are cool ideas. Rotating and background color make sense. IMHO shuffling would be better suited to some in-app menu so that you can run it whenever you need it (e.g to spice up your master thesis presentation a little), but I added it anyway to context menu.

I changed the labels a bit in a recent patch, hope that will be clearer. Now the options are: Slide Layout 1 Image 1 Image with Title 2 Images 4 Images When it comes to images with title, then I come to think that maybe we should strip text slides out altogether. Adding these later is no harder and gives you much better control over it. The same goes for captions. 2 or 4 images per slide is useful at times and can be done in my mockup as well. Here is how it would look like: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/File:Create_photo_album_4-images.png As for Keep aspect ratio button, I think we should just always keep aspect ratio, question rather is if we want to fill the screen and crop some of image or just fit it. In case of 1 image we don't crop it but just make it bigger than the screen if needed. Then if someone really likes stretched out images, they can always edit them later.

[libreoffice-design] Re: Experimental new LibreOffice UI
Hi, Le 06/04/2013 01:30, Keith Curtis a écrit : Hi all; I've written a proposal for a new experimental UI for LibreOffice Writer: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/User:KeithCu I am not sure to understand well, but it seems to me that you removed the Navigator, Styles and Formatting and the status bar. If I am not missing something, that is not only a new design, it is a new workflow for the end-users. Best regards.
