[Libreoffice-bugs] [Bug 77839] Draw - Arc and Circle improvement (multiple serious usability issues)
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=77839 --- Comment #4 from Gerhard Mesenich --- @Regina: Thanks for the F8 trick, new to me, very helpful! The hint should go into the popup help. I also strongly support your further wishes. @Owen: The arc and circle functions used to be well hidden in the in the Toolbars menu and were usually only be detected by good luck or intensive study of the manual. However with 4.3 the Drawing toolbar settings seem to have been greatly improved and it's now there, if I haven't set it myself as the first thing I always do :). After straight line drawing this is the second most important function for any type of formal drawing. Some further clarification: With compass mode a drawing compass is meant, the thing with the two legs and pin and pencil, used for geometric drawing (Zirkel in German). It should not be confused with a navigational compass, which also is round, but wouldn't make any sense here:). A 'compass mode' could probably be added as additional function, to not break anything for users prefering or used to the current procedure. Suitable icons (freeware?) for some initial testing and as example can be found here: http://findicons.com/icon/562850/compasses http://findicons.com/icon/562856/tools1 The rationale of the suggestion is to model the behavior to a tool everybody knows, so drawing can commence intuitively and efficiently without any second guessing. Simple formal drawing is the natural most common usage of Draw, which now is unnecessary complicated; mainly only for a much to steep learning curve of the program. Draw needs some heavy tweaking to get usable for most common tasks; an efford most users most likely are not willig or capable to make.

https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=77839 Regina Henschel changed: What|Removed |Added Status|NEEDINFO|NEW --- Comment #2 from Regina Henschel --- @Owen: The description is clearly about the arc from the ellipse toolbox. In Impress you can use the toolbar "Circle and Ovals", in Draw you might need to customize the drawing bar and add the command .uno:EllipseToolbox. @Gerhard: You get a better handling of an already drawn arc, when you switch to point mode (key F8), because then the outer handles indicate the size of the full ellipse whereas in normal mode they indicate the bounding box and in point mode you can alter start and end angle. I strongly support the request for a better handling and can add further wishes: Extend the Position&Size dialog, to allow input of numerical values for start and end angle, and allow a method to determine position and size relative to the underlying full ellipse, currently only the bounding box is used. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. ___ Libreoffice-bugs mailing list Libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-bugs

https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=77839 Owen Genat changed: What|Removed |Added Status|UNCONFIRMED |NEEDINFO Ever confirmed|0 |1 --- Comment #1 from Owen Genat --- (In reply to comment #0) > Arc and Circle making are currently overly complicated. Gerhard, can you clarify which tool in Draw you are referring to for "Arc" drawing? There is a "Curve" and "Ellipse" tool, as well as "Circle Pie" and "Block Arc" shapes that may be related. Usually a bezier curve (the Curve tool) is used to make an arc although it is possible to draw a circle using the Ellipse tool and break the line to produce an arc. > Arcs can currently only be drawn counter-clockwise, which most likely is the > opposite of what is expected by most. Again, I am not clear on which tool is being referred to here. It sounds like a reference to the Circle Pie tool, which currently behaves the same way as the equivalent in Inkscape. Status set to NEEDINFO. Once the above has been clarified please set the status back to UNCONFIRMED.
