[Libreoffice-ux-advise] [Bug 117009] In Impress UI scroll bars are active beyond the extent of the slide

https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=117009

--- Comment #6 from brian.bj.parker99@gmail.com ---
OSX Keynote has an option "auto-center" on its toolbar which is on by default.
When off it allows scrolling over the full canvas including regions off the
slide, as LO Impress does now. When on it gives the behaviour I suggest-
scrolling is limited to the extent of the slide.

I suggest adding a similar option to LO Impress (and ideally making it on by
default).

(An alternative UI would be that of Powerpoint, which allows scrolling a slide
horizontally and vertically to the bounding box of the slide and any off-slide
objects (off-slide objects can initially be added by zooming out the slide
until the surrounding canvas is shown). Thus, for the majority of slides, where
there are no off-slide objects, no scroll bars are shown and scroll bars appear
only for those slides that need it.)
