            Bug ID: 130995
           Summary: Possibility to have several grids activable and
                    deactivable easily (as in Inkscape for instance)
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.3.4.2 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: medium
         Component: Impress
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: steven.marguet at free.fr

Description:
I often use Impress to build courses about technical drawing. For precision I
use a grid with lines every 5 mm and 5 subdivisions so that I have a 1 mm
sub-grid. I find this setting efficient: easy to measure at the millimetre
level.

However, I sometimes need more precision, that is 0.5 or 0.25 mm. In this case
I change the grid and it works well. But for drawing, and measuring easily,
it's less convenient than with the previous settings. So once I finished what
requires precision, I reset my grid to 5 mm, 5 subdivisions.

I think it could be really useful to be able to define several grids and to
activate/deactivate them in few clicks, as proposed by Inkscape to give an
example (Inkscape being less efficient than Impress/Draw for technical drawing
in my opinion from my abilities).

LibreOffice is a very good tool for drawing and that should be great !

Thank you for reading !

Actual Results:
Only one grid in Draw/Impress

Expected Results:
Several predefined grid which can be activated/deactivated easily.


Reproducible: Always
