hey,

Was trying to cheat but seems not to work the way I want it to look
like.
For the rectangular gradient I tried to use three instead of two
colors, so to imitate a black to white gradient(the old school way) I
just used a black to white to black gradient (SVGgradient). Just kind
of "mirror" the colors at the middle line/color.

the ellepsoid es even harder to imitate
Yes, but that's the 'Axial' type, not too hard and doable as you
describe. To make it clear, here is how to find all six types:
- start impress
- press 'Area' button in the 'Line and Filling' Toolbar (the can in the
upper toolbar)
- You get the area dialog
- There, select the tab 'Gradients'
- Play with Type, you have six kinds of gradients
- Also play with the other values, lots of things to do here...
The types 'Linear' and 'Axial' are simple.
The type 'Radial' is simple.
The type 'Ellipsoid is *not* simple, put 50% in CenterY and CenterY to
see that is has no single *center*.
The types 'Square' and 'Rectangular' have similar problems, plus that
they are based on rectangles, not available in SVG
- close the dialog
- create a rectangle, keep it selected
- open the dialog again
- in the 'Area' tab, select 'Gradient' in the Fill DropDown
- Choose any gradient
- At 'Increments' at the right, switch off 'Automatic' and choose a
small value (e.g. three)
->No way to do that with SVG.
Hope this gets clearer now. If you find ways to map these to SVG stuff,
tell me, I will be happy.
BTW: Didi you commit some tasks in bugzilla for SVG import recently? If
yes, thanks for that, I will look asap ;-)
Sincerely,
Armin

Hi,
Ah, I see. Just curious; how did you find out, it's not really
advertized that they use our code...?
...
Did you read
(https://blogs.apache.org/OOo/entry/good_news_libreoffice_is_integrating),
btw...?
I think that's the same page the person posted to the forum I got
the
information from (actually did not read the article).
IIRC I heard it from here:

(comment #26)
Ah okay. They should at least tell people that it's not useful to
write
tasks for LO for an AOO-feature. I will not even see them there, I am
not working at/for/on LO.
>...(problem is the non-linear (irregular) form of the Ellipsoid
and
Rectangular ones, another problem is that you can select the number
of
steps in AOO, say just eight and get useful nice effects.)
What do you mean by "non-linear (irregular) form of the Ellipsoid
and
Rectangular" ?
is "on-linear (irregular) form of the Ellipsoid " an ellipse with
some
bumps???
In Ellipsoid and Rectangular (play with it) the center of the gradient
gets to a line. There is no linear transformation to map this to SVG
gradients. Anyways there is no mapping to Rectangluar at all.
...you can select the number of steps in AOO
Which steps do you mean?
gradient steps??
Yes. In the fill attributes you can set the step cout to e.g.
user-defined 3 steps. This is useful in arious cases, but will also
not
map to SVG where this is not possible.
regards.
