To keep the aspect ratio constant, hold down the shift key while
re-sizing.

Hi list,
I'm working on a presentation for my employer and decided to do it
with
OOo-Impress 2.0. This presentation includes a logo of the company I'm
working for, which has to be properly down-scaled by Impress.
Unfotunately, after scaling down the logo looks really bad in
Impress, so
I started looking for some option to improve the scaling quality
(e.g. by
turning on bilinear or trilinear smoothing), but found nothing so far.
In comparison, MS Powerpoint does the same scaling job *much* better.
Also, if I downscale the image with any graphics viewer (like gqview)
with bilinear scaling turned on, it looks pretty much the same as in
Powerpoint.
So here is my question: is there a way to improve the scaling quality
of
images in the OOo suite? If not, I'll be forced to switch to
Powerpoint,
which I really don't want to happen...
Thanks
Adalbert
I agree that image scaling is a weakness in OOo. In writer I've wanted
to resize an image by dragging the corner while keeping the aspect
ratio. There doesn't seem to be any way to do this.
