(The ambiguity of visual size vs. file size is confusing.) > <a class="bz_bug_link bz_status_NEW " title="NEW - Show proper actual dimensions in Compress Image dialog" href="show_bug.cgi?id=132656">Bug 132656</a> - Show proper actual dimensions in Compress Image dialog I don't want to compress. > <a class="bz_bug_link bz_status_UNCONFIRMED " title="UNCONFIRMED - ENHANCEMENT: Image without resolution set should get a default fallback resolution (not based on a screen resolution)" href="show_bug.cgi?id=132658">Bug 132658</a> - ENHANCEMENT: Image without resolution set should get a default > fallback resolution (not based on a screen resolution) Close, but I want to _control_ the DPI in Writer. After understanding this problem with Writer I started setting the resolution of my images in GIMP, and Writer uses it (hooray!), but my request here is regardless of the resolution in the image file I want to set the displayed size of the image in Writer by DPI. > Making it a duplicate of <a class="bz_bug_link bz_status_NEW " title="NEW - UI of export to PNG and JPG misleading for resolution" href="show_bug.cgi?id=115464">Bug 115464</a> - UI of export to PNG and JPG misleading > for resolution since this one has a mockup (but focus on export). ... The UI for Image > Crop > Scale would be similar to <a href="http://bugs.documentfoundation.org/attachment.cgi?id=142611" name="attach_142611" title="Mockup for the dialog">attachment 142611</a> <a href="http://bugs.documentfoundation.org/attachment.cgi?id=142611&action=edit" title="Mockup for the dialog">[details]</a> , but instead of _file sizing_ by dimension, resolution, or pixels, the controls are _scaling displayed size_ by percentage, image dimensions, or resolution in DPI/Dots per Length. I made my own mockup, attached (disclaimer, I have no idea how display size interacts with Crop). > ... If this is > totally wrong please check the META bug - or reopen. Respectfully, I'm reopening as a separate bug. I added this bug as a dependency of Writer-Images and Images-DPI, and commented in <a class="bz_bug_link bz_status_NEW " title="NEW - UI of export to PNG and JPG misleading for resolution" href="show_bug.cgi?id=115464">bug 115464</a> that Writer's image properties > Crop > Scale needs a similar three-way control. Looking at some of the bug reports, people seem unhappy with Writer's guess as to how big to make an inserted image, so maybe this UI to scale/size by percentage, dimensions, or DPI should be to be part of the Insert > Image dialog, or an immediate second step, instead of making people find Format > Image > Properties or right-click Properties > Crop. Thanks for all your efforts, everyone.</pre> </div> <div id="referenced"> <hr style="border: 1px dashed #969696"> Referenced Bugs: <ul> <li> [<a class="bz_bug_link bz_status_NEW " title="NEW - [META] Writer image bugs and enhancements" href="https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=103152">Bug 103152</a>] [META] Writer image bugs and enhancements </li> <li> [<a class="bz_bug_link bz_status_NEW " title="NEW - [META] Image issues related to image DPI" href="https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=116082">Bug 116082</a>] [META] Image issues related to image DPI </li> </ul> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the assignee for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
