But does the workflow have to be that different? Would it be possible, for instance, to add individual ones of these canvases to page in a presentation since it is a flake shape? Rather than treating them as seperate, I think it might be better to treat the single canvas as a special case of a canvas embedded in a page. Ideally, if libreoffice can get their act together and get svg files working in impress it might even be possible to have it displayed correctly there as well. > -- In Stage I still haven't been able to work out how to save and > load an SVG. In Karbon, afaik, a KarbonDocument is converted to an SVG. What > should be used in its place in Stage? Certainly not karbon. To a user, this is a presentation, not an image. -Todd _______________________________________________ calligra-devel mailing list calligra-devel@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/calligra-devel
