Have you enabled in Draw Menu/View/Grid and Help lines/Help lines While moving. Thank you. It's a little bit better but not the best. However, the relatively wide object markings make it difficult to work with objects. This is okay for Impress and Writer. But for Draw and the creation of complex drawings, it is unfortunately a major obstacle. Please consider implementing it in a similar way to MS PowerPoint for one of the upcoming releases. I think many people would be happy about it. [Automated Action] NeedInfo-To-Unconfirmed Adjusting object markers in LibreOffice feels like playing a precision game; thinner lines, similar to MS PowerPoint, would make the process smoother. For exact positioning use the Position&Size dialog, or set snap points or lines, or use positioning relative to other object with the align-toolbar, or enable snap to grid, or use Alt+Arrow to move objects in pixel steps, or use a large zoom. When working in Draw it is helpful to show the "Options" toolbar, which collects some snap and grid toggles. |
