Hi guys,

5) The handles for resizing and rotating look rather dated. They
should be replaced by some squares/circles filled with a nice

Agreed - there are two modes: large and small for the handles but both
look dated as you say. Some consensus on this from the design team
might
let us create some easy hack around this.

There are four modes: small, large, small/3D, large/3D. Writer's
scanner tool uses small square black handles, but I am not sure if
these are graphics.
Additionally, in Draw/Impress, there are at least another four handles
(corner, side vertical, side horizontal, center) for rotating and a
further two (node, "direction of node") for manipulating vector lines,
all are also available in four modes (small, small/3D, large,
large/3D).

So - Thorsten - is there really any good reason for all these handle
modes ?


A bit on Bezier-curve handles in Draw:

Attached is a screenshot attempting to show the difference of those,
compared to the resizing handles.
There's a slight circular shadow effect on the Bezier handles. (Is it
possible that they're supposed to be circular but are suffering from the
alpha transparency bug mentioned in the other thread ?)

The control points of Bézíer curves should have circle (sphere in 3D) handles and the curve point themselves should have square handles.

When changing the handles, please be aware, that the starting point of polyline and of Bézier curves is larger than the other points. This is true even for closed lines. For closed lines the larger one is that knot, where the line is cut, when you uncheck "closing".

Kind regards
Regina
