In OO.o it is very difficult to achieve good results as these features are not included in all the relevant programs (writer, presenter and paint)and especially the cropping part is very difficult to do in a convinient manner due to the small preview. So what would be a nice way to do this? Well as I said: Publisher does in the following manner (I seem to remember) After having clicked an image I have the usual rezize arrows popping up when I point at the edges. If I do it with 'ctrl' pressed I get an rotating arrow indicating that I can rotate the image and if I press the 'alt' key I get a scissor indicating that I can crop the image instead of resizing it. This is in my opinion one of the most awkward things to do in OO.o, improving this would give me a far faster program to work with!

After clicking it the handlers of selected image change and can then be used to scale the frame of the image instead of scaling the image itself. It works, is well known by Powerpoint users and doesn't require one to memorize modifier keys (allthough being able to use modifier keys for fast access is nice.) Anyway, it's very important that any kind of cropping snaps to grid and guidelines for serious layout work.

Just a small additional wish: I would like to see the current dimension of the crop selection (in pixels or some other unit) displayed in the status bar (or somewhere else, e.g. like a tool-tip when the mouse button is held pressed). It is sometimes important to crop the exact dimension, and this dynamic feature has the advantage of being faster than the dialog. So it makes sense to see the crop dimensions, too.

Yes, I guess so. But then still the user has to leave the object after having rotated the image, and maybe has to resize the ole object. It will only be a partial work around. So I keep my fingers crossed for 3.2 :-) Reply at: https://bugs.launchpad.net/df- libreoffice/+bug/87220/comments/67 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ On 2009-03-16T09:16:11+00:00 Orwittmann wrote: There is currently planning in progress to replace the Writer specific graphic implementation by the Draw graphic implementation. When this is done graphics can be easily cropped and/or rotated directly in Writer. Thus, there will be no special effort being made for this issue, but this issue will be solved when the replacement has been made. When the issue for the replacement is known, I will depend this issue on it.

Such a feature would really help OpenOffice, most of its releases contain many features that most users wont ever use. But this is a feature that anyone migrating from Microsoft office will need. Especilly if he has a document with rotated images which then makes him return to Microsoft office. Its sad that many features in Feature requests in openoffice get pushed away for less important ones or having a release with no serious feature development because of bug fixing.
