I'd prefer not to complicate things. Would think the default 'Open' import filter handling should consistently just result in a Draw canvas sized to the image's bounds--a bounding box, or image size in pixels, or image size in measurement units. Reduce it to reasonable units if too far oversize--but handle the opening at the image's aspect ratio -- minimal or no margins to canvas edge. We'd always 'Open' into Draw. The 'Insert' import filter should, where appropriate, resize and shrink the image keeping aspect ration so as to fit within margins of a document page. I don't think we need resize and expand to image--but if simpler in the filter to do so then fine. I would think doing these adjustments for all image formats, the filters would cover common worklows with the simplest refactoring of the filters. Reconfigurations for 'Insert' filters, or OLE embedding workflows, would support directly creating new a document page (i.e. other than Draw module) from the incoming image. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.___ Libreoffice-bugs mailing list Libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-bugs

https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=128270 --- Comment #2 from V Stuart Foote --- Interstingly the Corel Draw import filter for .CDR vector graphics will, like .SVG import filter, size the canvas to the graphic. But unlike the SVG filter it does not assign a margin. Its behavior is close to what all the import filters should have on import opening to Draw. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.___ Libreoffice-bugs mailing list Libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-bugs

Perhaps as default behavior, as done now for SVG. Behavior now, opening to user profile defaults page size (not just A4), comes from the shared sd source for Draw & Impress where document creation is normally multi-slide/page ODF presentation or drawing. Opening a PNG, JPG, EPS image onto document page (shrinking it to fit page margins) is conducive to efficient creation of a multi-page presentation starting with the initial open. But, we could increase utility for use of Draw as an graphic/image editor if default for Draw import filter opening would be to place a graphic/image onto a canvas matching the image size. And while looking at this, the resulting canvas should not assign margins (as is done now but ignored for SVG import opening). Would actually improve flow of using Draw ODF drawings for OLE embedding. Changing this, we might need to provide an optional 'open to default page size' and 'observe margins'. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.___ Libreoffice-bugs mailing list Libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-bugs
