[Libreoffice-bugs] [Bug 154494] Can't set presentation direction

Text direction is one thing, and locale is another thing. Locale is not a setting for any document - it's an app setting. Or maybe we're not talking about the same thing?

And the user might want to change their mind about this. Or print RTL handouts for one audience and LTR handouts for another audience. > > I don't think we can avoid some kind of toggle widget. > Clearly a no-go. We have to obey the ODF and consider x-plattform too. What do you mean by "obey the ODF"? What are "x-platform"'s? > > There is also the question of whether we want the have the document itself > > persist a choice of direction. That's a question I don't have an answer to. > Don't get this. It is likely that you want a presentation's _author_ to tell you whether the slide-sorter / handouts should be RTL or LTR. To do that, that choice needs to be saved in the .odp file. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

That's a question I don't have an answer to. Don't get this. UX-wise I suggest to just draw the slides from right to left assuming we can read the intended direction somehow from the presentation. I suggest to change the subject to something like "Make slide sorter RTL-affine". -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

But since Hossein agreed with you it's apparently desired. but those screens sometimes get embedded on a plane, on in a medium where direction has significance, and then you have to choose whether slide 2 is on the left or the right of slide 1. > Simply draw the images in the slide sorter from right to left in case the > presentation locale is RTL? 1. Presentations don't have locales... 2. If you mean app locale / UI language - that wouldn't help I don't think we can avoid some kind of toggle widget. As for the choice of initial value when going to Slide Sorter view, that could perhaps be based on the page style of the first Master slide, or the master for the current slide, or the app UI language. The latter may offer the more consistent user experience even if it may require more flipping on the user's part. There is also the question of whether we want the have the document itself persist a choice of direction. That's a question I don't have an answer to. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
