comparison of angle setting in LO 3.5.4 and LO 24.8
Draw a shape in Draw or Impress, select the shape and open the "Position and
Size" dialog, e.g. via shortcut F4. Go to tab "Rotation".
The rotation wheel bottom right of the dialog page has the label "Default
settings:".
The term "Default settings" had meant, that it allows usual rotation angles
with one click. That was correct at times when this control was not a wheel but
a rectangle, see attached comparison. Now it is a wheel that allow arbitrary
angles. I think, the rotation wheel control is such a common control, that it
does not need any label, and it is not accessed with the F6 accessibility
shortcut. Micheal Weghorn should know whether you still need a label.
The help has a similar error. It reads, "Click to specify the rotation angle in
multiples of 45 degrees." In contrast to the rotation handles in rotation mode
of the shape, this rotation wheel control has not even a mode to restrict the
rotation to a multiple of 45 degrees. The help should read something like,
"Drag the handle to set the desired angle."
BTW, the position of the label is bad. The label has a colon and thus I expect,
that the object for which it is a label, is placed right of it or below of it.
