Hi Armin,

Both do not allow round-trip, good-quality SVG editing, that is not the
role of LO.

Why not?

Don't get me wrong - I would love LO to be a SVG editor, in the same sense that I would love it to be a pixel editor when a pixel graphic is selected. Both would require much work to make it happen. In the case of the pixel editor the pragmatic answer is to use an external tool, evtl. triggered from the office. As long as we do not extensively add work to get a good SVG edit roundtrip, the answer for now is the same for SVG.


 At least, (b) keeps the orig SVG as reusable data (context
menu, save graphic saves the *original* svg). Thus, you can edit it in
an external editor and re-add (or is there nowadays even a 'edit in
external editor', have seen that somewhere..?).

The item "Edit with External Tool..." is in the context menu of the image. In my case the browser is started to open the svg image. But LO adds garbage in front of the svg source, so my browser shows an XML error. Despite of the ... in the item label, no dialog opens to choose the External Tool.

The idea is good and this should be added to bugzilla as an error. This should be possible for SVG and pixel graphics. If this runs well (and opens the user's choosen default editor for the wnated purpose) we have a good solution.


Kind regards
Regina
