automatic preview when changing object properties

[stanman]

Currently, when changing an object's properties such as size, colour, rotation angle or position, one has to adjust the values, close the dialogue, see what it looks like, re-open the dialogue, adjust the values again etc.
This process could be sped up greatly, if NeoOffice (and OpenOffice for that matter) had an "instant preview" option, such as many other programs do (MS Office, Adobe Illustrator etc.).
Is this a feature request I should send to OpenOffice instead of NeoOffice?

By the way, thanks for the great job! Very useful software!

This is definitely a feature request to send to OpenOffice.org.

In case you don't know where their bug reporting site is, you can file a bug in the OpenOffice.org issue tracker at the following URL:

http://qa.openoffice.org/issue_handling/pre_submission.html

Note : our advice is to not mention NeoOffice as mentioning NeoOffice might cause OOo volunteers to preemptively close it without actually reviewing your bug.
