Specification
Wish List
- SmartArt in Insrt menu
- A dialog that contains all kinds of graphics will pop up after hitting SmartArt. Basically it is classified into seven sorts(list, process, cycle, hierarchy, relationship, matrix, pyramid). After any graphic is inserted it can provided an edit box beside it. Within the edit box user may input text he/she wants to express. At the same time the graphic ought to show the text. Additionally if user wants to add items of text that are beyond the scope of original graphics pressing ENTER once can extend the graphics by one. And user also can adapt the text by using ALT to make it in the same graphic or not.
- SmartArt Tools menu visible according to the context
- When user finishes inserting a graphic the menu bar will extend by adding SmartArt Tools which has two parts: Design and Format. Making use of them user can make any changes to the previous graphic. Design item includes “Create Graphic”, “layouts”, “SmartArt Styles” and “Reset”. Format item includes “Shapes”, “Shape Styles”, “WorldArt Styles”, “Arrange” and “Size”. Meanwhile, animations can be also applied to these graphics.
- Converting text into graphics
- It can be a tool within tool bar. When user edits text in the edit area he/she may choose this tool to convert the text into the desired graphics. It is supposed to trigger a pop-up dialog which involves available graphics for user. It may put the text into the corresponding items of graphics automatically according to paragraph or bullets and numbering. Maybe it can only be used in Impress. For instance, input text in a slide and then select one sort of graphics in the list box to convert the text to graphics automatically.
Implementation
