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
