--- Comment #9 from Heiko Tietze <tietze.heiko@gmail.com> ---
(In reply to csongor from comment #7)
I still think that the current behaviour is very annoying, counter-intuitive
and not understandable for most of the users therefore it should be changed.
That's vastly exaggerated :-). At maximum it's a minor inconsistency.
I think my proposed idea would be totally clean, not confusing and easy to
implement. The following steps should be done.
- the Width and Height fields should be kept as they are now
- the Orientation radio button should be replaced by a text that displays
portrait/square/landscape if w<h, w=h, w>h, respectively
- there should be a "Swap Width and Height" button beside the two input
fields.
That complicates a simple interface way too much. What you ask for is an
automatic adjustment of portrait or landscape depending on user settings. Would
have the drawback of unintentional behavior in case you define landscape first
and manipulate the values later.
I wonder if all this trouble is a language related thing. Would you still
request the enhancement when the options have more generic terms and the
function is called "flip"? (Not voting for this change, just as an example.)
