--- Comment #4 from V Stuart Foote <vsfoote at libreoffice.org> ---
Currently have .uno:DistributeHorzDistance and .uno:DistributeVertDistance
apply to a multi-frame selection (so images or draw shapes) and Impress or Draw
sd only.

The space distribution is calculated against the x,y extents *of the selection*
only. And for most cases that is going to be preferred (think of working when
zoom'd in to canvas, do not want to affect elements out of view, just the
selection).

There are occasions where the distribution could be more efficient if
calculated against a specific x,y extent--a containing rectangle shape, or the
common case for slide layout to distribute spacing calculated against the slide
or drawing page margins.

UI would require some toggle, or additional UNO (i.e. distribute selection
against a bounding shape/page margin).

Page margin x,y extent could never be the default for the distribution. But it
would be useful to implement.
