Description issues@www 2001-03-02 08:39:40 UTC 
Create a presentation with a slide containing a large rectangle (filled with 
colour)

use the dissolve effect when it appears.

The size of the blocks in which the dissolve creates the objects
are rather large, coarse rectangles that do not look very good on a large
screen, and significantly less good than other competitive office products.

can the resolution be - say - doubled, but with the time persiod staying the 
same?
Comment 1 bettina.haberer 2001-03-06 11:24:45 UTC 
Yes, a change would improve the dissolve-effect. We should change it as object- 
and slide-effect. And for the object-effect the granularity should be adjusted 
according to the size of the object (getting more fine/coarse the 
smaller/bigger the object is; upper limit should be the resolution for the 
screen).

seems to be solveable with our new presentation engine, doesnt it?
Comment 5 thb 2004-01-26 12:53:41 UTC 
Yes, but this is a feature request. Along the way, reduced the prio to 4.
Comment 6 thb 2004-05-04 12:03:25 UTC 
Fixed in cws_src680_presentationengine01.
Comment 7 thb 2004-11-25 20:04:46 UTC 
Sorry, had to back that fix out. Performance currently does not allow for too
fine a resolution here.

Nearly 3 years later.... might it be time to revisit this?

I patched my binary (that was fun!) to test out 64x64 dissolves (to match the
appearance of another well known presentation tool) and the performance on
my (fairly new) machine was quite adequate.

It would be nice to at-least make 64x64 optional for improved compatibility
with what my colleagues use.
Comment 9 thb 2007-09-11 09:29:08 UTC 
Sounds reasonable -> 2.x
Comment 10 Martin Hollmichel 2007-09-12 12:42:10 UTC 
set target to 3.x according to http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Target_3x

@af: Thanks for taking a look. This is fixed with the ogl transitions; now we
only need this working for win32 & mac. ;)
