--- Comment #6 from V Stuart Foote <vstuart.foote@utsa.edu> ---
Yes, all of OPs observations are correct. There is inconsistency across the
components in how the page background fill tool for bitmaps are structured.
--Tab labels--
Area (Writer) vs. Background (Calc, Draw, Impress)
--Dialog names--
Page Style (Writer, Calc) vs. Page Setup (Draw, Impress --w/ no Import)
--Button lables--
Import graphic...(Writer) vs. Browse (Calc)
**Draw and Impress are missing an import option button - that seems
incorrect
Possible that the dialogs really are different (Page Style vs. Page Setup), but
believe they are all controlling the same page background fill attribute(s) of
the internal and ODF document. So, IMHO the crux here is simple inconsistency
of labeling in the UI.
I also believe the handling in Writer's Format -> Page dialog: Area tab is
incorrect label it should also be "Background" (for the page), but otherwise is
the most complete and should be the model to bring the other dialogs and tabs
consistent.
Regards nomenclature:
"Vector" based drawings, and "Raster" bitmaps are all "graphics", internally
they are all processed into bitmap metafiles for rendering onto the drawing
canvas. So we do not need to be too concerned with notation--so long as it is
consistent. And so long as when saved to ODF or export to external
format--the correct conversions are applied--mainly to preserve/control
resolution where appropriate.
