Introduction

This page shows the planning and progress of the Multi Page Layout feature,see i1598.

Specification: 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)

Million of other questions
