Plans

Since recent work in progress for OpenGL transitions integration in the Mac OS X version, it could be interesting to think what could be done to improve Impress?

Ideas coming in mind are :

Be sure it works

Status

- Linux [ OK ] - Mac OS X [Works, work in progress] - Windows [started, does not work]

Application 1 : complete the Windows port ( + write documentation )

Application 2 : optimize the existing implementation, and document it

Understand the Impress application

Application 3 :

- find and document a list of issues Impress related - analyze them (describe intereactions with Stard Draw e.g.) - prepare well described applications

Proposed subjects

• Make Impress master pages copyable https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=380039
• Attach Impress animations to styles https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=380041
• Create a diagramming sidebar extension for OOo Draw/Impress
• Create a Visio import filter for Draw
• Add animation support to Impress Flash export
• Implement an AutoCAD vector import for OOo
• Use PDF import's layout recognition for other vector formats (e.g. postscript, wmf/emf)
• OpenGL canvas backend
• Standalone presentation viewer
• Implement additional 3D slideshow transitions
• Multimedia Handling
• Presentation Wizards
• Video rendering

[FIXME] : to be continued
