Bug ID: 127507
Summary: Allow choosing different alignment behavior
Product: LibreOffice
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: minor
Priority: medium
Component: Draw
Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org
Reporter: eyal...@technion.ac.il
Description:
Let's suppose we're left-aligning two shapes, at X positions 1 cm and 2 cm. We
could:
* Align their left edges to 1 cm (choose the leftmost)
* Align their left edges to 2 cm (choose the rightmost)
* Align their left edges to 1.5 cm (choose the average)
LO Draw currently chooses the first option - for left-aligning. For
right-aligning it's the last option, and for centering it's the middle option.
This is not necessarily what the user wants, or needs. S/he may have some
element perfectly in place, then want to align all other elements with it.
While it's true you could sort of do this with align, it's at the very least
inconvenient and annoying to do so (e.g. using rulers); also, due to UI
accuracy issues (can't go lower than 0.01 cm), the user may not always
correctly be able t manually align the boxes.
I would like for the choice between the three behaviors above to be made
available - some GUI'ish way.
Steps to Reproduce:
Create two squares of dimension 1 and place them at a distance of 1 x their
size horizontally and 3 x their size vertically for a while. The align them and
un-align them in several ways.
Actual Results:
N/A
Expected Results:
N/A
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: No
