Introduction
This page shows the planning and progress of the implementation of the Multi Page Layout feature,see i1598.
ToDo
- Evaluate OD's hack and start a first prototype (est. 1 week) DONE
- Find and resolve problems: (est. 3 weeks)
- Root frame changes (paste page, cut page, change page format) (est. 1d) DONE
- Resolve repaint issues of page frame (est. 1d) DONE
- Cursor Traveling (est. 2d) DONE
- EmptyPages (est. 1d) DONE
- Printing (est. 1d) DONE
- PDF export (est. 1d) DONE
- examine DOCUMENTBORDER stuff in sw/source/ui (est. 3d)
- Why is DOCUMENTBORDER in SwTabColItem? (est. 1d)
- Object positioning (est. 3d)
- Browse View (est. 2d)
- Ruler? (est. 1d)
- Accessibility?
- Screen position depending fields (est. 1d)
- Consider Max' new notes feature
- 1.000.000 more yet unknown problems (est. 1.000.000d)
- Define new algorithm to layout pages (SPEC)
- Implement algorithm (est. 3d)
Conceptual Problems
These still need to be solved and agreed on before starting the implementation.
LTR vs RTL Text
- Arabic and other RTL languages
- Japanese: both LTR/Top-to-Bottom and Top-To-Bottom/RTL within the same document
Multiple Page Sizes
- is there any use case for multiple page sizes within the same document?
Horizontal Ruler
- one global horizontal ruler vs multiple rulers
Notes
- where do we position notes:
- always right vs 'left & right' depending on even/odd page
- always right
- disadvantage: notes for left pages will overlap right pages
- need to plan for additional space between pages
- right & left side:
- there will be some empty space both on the right and the left of the screen
- need possibly more extensive changes to 'Notes'-code
- for variable-pages-per-row: IF one changes the zoom-level, the number of pages that are displayed will change resulting also in a change in the position of the notes (can be distracting)
