I recently logged a bug here: https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=139170 The example given is that code that actually determines a polyline needs to be “emulated”. What this means is that the polyline and polygon rendering is ing done in OutputDevice and not in the various SalGraphics backends. In particular, the genpsp and X11 backends are the backends that don’t seem to handle things fully. OutputDevice also seems to handle things that other classes should be handling - for example it seems to do more handling of bitmaps where I would have thought that the Bitmap class could handle the functionality. Just a general comment. I have recently taken a stab at shifting some functionality out of OutputDevice and into Bitmap, but there is a lot I can see we could cull from OutputDevice.

Argh, I meant the "wrong named "Firefox" Address Data source".

Removing Mork => removing Thunderbird Address book but there's been too mozab removing (I'm ok with this), should we remove all related idl eg: offapi/com/sun/star/mozilla/MozillaBootstrap.idl or offapi/com/sun/star/mozilla/XProfileDiscover.idl ? Also there's the wrong named "Firebird" Address Data Source in Writer wizards, should we remove this (or rename it if it works with Mozilla Suite/Seamonkey but does it worth it?), knowing that the only remaining entry would be "Other" (not very UI friendly...)? Of course, all this should be documented in 7.2 release notes. -- Sent from: http://document-foundation-mail-archive.969070.n3.nabble.com/Dev-f1639786.html ___ LibreOffice mailing list LibreOffice@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice
