[Bug 158685] Implement a simple calculation of values to input size and position of draw objects
https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=158685 Heiko Tietze changed: What|Removed |Added CC|libreoffice-ux-advise@lists |heiko.tietze@documentfounda |.freedesktop.org|tion.org Keywords|needsUXEval | Status|UNCONFIRMED |NEW Priority|medium |lowest Ever confirmed|0 |1 --- Comment #7 from Heiko Tietze --- We discussed the topic in the design meeting. In addition to what has been commented here, the slash might be used as a number separator in some locales and one cannot be sure it is a divider (the function could be limited to spinedits). The very basic arithmetic is not enough anyway, and many tools provide the functionality out of the box (eg. KRunner on Linux/KDE but also the search bar on Windows starts a calculator). (In reply to Buovjaga from comment #6) > https://librearts.org/2020/07/how-to-use-math-input-in-gimp/ I like mixing units a lot. Adding it to the number in order to convert into what is defined could be a good alternative to the widget proposed in bug 72662. So while we concluded that such a feature is not worth the effort, I think we can keep the ticket open with a low priority until more users ask for such a feature. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

Setting the scope of the possibilities is a question indeed, if we would want to do this. With the availability of CALCulators that people can tweak to whatever they need, I doubt if it is wise to start walking this path.. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

Could be nice if the input field parse formulas first. The example is nothing that needs computational support, division slike 2/3 make more sense. But I wonder if this is limited to basic arithmetic or some functions/constants are needed too. like "pi()/4 * 1.2345" or "sqr(sin(2)/cos(3))".

https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=158685 --- Comment #3 from Francox --- when we are working and in full concentration, it is, in my opinion, important to be able to enter formulas in the position and dimension field (this avoids errors and loss of concentration). I hope you will consider this interesting proposal. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

Kind of a stretch for *needing* to do the simple calculations in the input field of the UI, but we already have spin box and direct unit conversion, so might be of use? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
