Minutes
Present: Sahil, Eyal, Rafael, John, Heiko Comments: Cor, Regina. Ilmari Tickets/Topics * Allow deletion of a master slide in-use and its using slides, via a confirmation dialog + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=163823 + too drastic and may result in the deletion of all slides (Rafael) + slides using this master could be delete after confirmation (Eyal) + no principal objection to this proposal (Cor, Rafael) + block master slide deletion as long a slide uses it, ie. keep the current state (Heiko) + use case is to switch master; there is no info on its used (Eyal) + if we had a way to select all slides with some master it could be also a solution (Eyal) + Writer allows to search/replace paragraph styles, could be implemented similarly in Impress (Heiko) => keep ticket * No option to resize chart area while maintaining height-vs-width proportions + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=163816 + resizing is not possible with keeping ratio when in edit mode (Regina) + reasonable request (Rafael) => introduce the shift modifier to retain the aspect ratio * Want mechanism to restrict slide contents to area used by content on the master + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=163511 + just assign the slide layout again; no special indicator needed (Regina) + keep it simple and use the layout; ie. WF (Heiko) + other objects aren't clipped with layouting; we should apply the operation move/resize to all objects (Eyal) + request makes sense (John) + introduce another method to have both options (Sahil) => do it * When changing special char dialog search term - keep position and highlighted char + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=163817 + keep search on key press (Heiko) + last selected position is remembered; not against this request but don't see a strong use case for this either (Rafael) + yet it is the last position rather than the search result (Heiko) + grey background is not visible on gtk3 (Eyal) + asking to keep the selection only as long the result contains it (Eyal) + use case is either a large number of search results, eg. circum, or similar looking items (Eyal) => do it * Support continuing paragraph numbering from one drawing object in another + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=163819 + Writer has "[ ] Restart numbering" (Cor) + lists are not available for floating text boxes (Heiko) + correct solution is to have real paragraph styles in sd plus assigned list styles (Heiko) + could be realized per extension (Sahil) + see also bug 163245 (Eyal), is a duplicate (Heiko) => keep it * Selecting Embossed/Engraved disables Outline and Shadow - but doesn't uncheck them + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=163809 + disabled state is sufficient and correct (Ilmari, Regina, Heiko) + current implementation feels correct (Rafael, Cor) + accept NAB (Eyal) => NAB
