I remember opening a report on that to set a minimum and a maximum width for all sidebar decks, but it was rejected. > > If there is a feasible means to adjust the default layout that would permit > a 16:9 template to appear good > You mentioned space issues, but I showed you with screen captures that even with the sidebar open -with the default values- on a small monitor (11'- 1366x768) such space problems don't make a 16:9 page format unusable. > >, i'd be more than glad to accept it, but i > havent seen one. > Currently there is not if there is no agreement on making some changes. For example, open the deck contextually and hide it again when you deselect or select another item, or that all the deck doesn't cut the content with the default width, etc. > > Powerpoint doesnt have a sidebar, it has an optional/advanced formatting > pane, and when the pane appears or is resized, it dynamically shrinks the > slide pane. Keynote has a fixed size sidebar (270px), while Impress' sidebar > needs a minimum of 20% more width to appear with non-cropped controls. > I don't see a real problem of lack of space, but if you see it you can't do much if you don't expect to make some changes. > > These apps require you to select a template before you can enter the apps > and it isnt optional. > Only the first time you open these apps.

I respect that you don't agree with the proposed change, but I discuss the arguments you use to defend. If you don't want to continue defending your point of view, you can refrain from continuing to respond and I doubt that our discussion prevents others from giving their opinion.</pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the assignee for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
