I received a proposal from Christian Jansen. It has some interesting details ExportNewRasterGraphicOptionaCJ.png

My comments:

  • I think, putting the "keep ratio" checkbox and "original size" button under the width and height fields looks better than the place I have given it.
  • Making a information section over the Help-Ok-Chancel section looks good. It would have the advantage, that there is enough place to add an additional warning if necessary.
  • The icon "information" is a good idea. Christian can deliver such an OOo-conform icon, as he told me.
  • We need no second "keep ratio" because there is only one pixel resolution.
  • I like to put the color depth in the common section because this is a feature which appears in several formats. Up to now OOo doesn't allow the user to determine it for all possible cases. But with further improvement in this area, no new design would be necessary.

Cl comments:

  • I would remove the "Restore" label
  • A second keep ratio does make sense as you can edit either logical size and pixel size. They both have a ratio.


Two new proposals. I've added warnig and error icons in addition, so you can form an opinion about them. Regina 00:13, 20 March 2008 (CET)

Version 2

Version 3

Version 4

I put the information on one line. The text itself should be improved by a linguist. I think, that it is necessary to have the number behind the text, so that you have one string, which will be translated and another string, which holds number and unit and needs no translation.

In this mockup I use a warning. If no warning needed, it should show an "information"-icon instead.

I think the information itself and a warning is necessary, because a user can easily made settings, which produce very large pictures. Currently OOo produces an "General I/O error" and an additional "file could not be written" error, after it tries to save. I don't know, what happens now, if the needed memory exceeds RAM. But the user should get a warning before OOo produces an error.Regina 14:09, 20 March 2008 (CET)
