Background

This document summarises feedback from the initial trials at UPV and other trial partners during November and December 2016. It is a synthesis of themes that have come through multiple issue reports and need further planing/tasks to be addressed.

Additional issues and comments have been added 24 Jan 2017 following a second report from UPV.


IssueImport of slides containing images and diagrams
Description
  1. Slides containing multiple images and/or diagrams are not imported correctly. This is due to limitations in the import engine PPTX2HTML which currently only supports line diagrams and a few image types (jpg, png, gif)

  2. When a slide imports, input boxes are created for the missing diagram and images but they are empty. This creates additional difficulties for the user as they have to remove these empty input boxes before adding the missing content.
  3. If an image has been cropped (

Suggestion (Abi)..... add prepossessing to the import service so that diagrams and unsupported images are converted into images. Consider whether this should be in SVG format to allow images and diagrams to be editable.
Klaas: I agree. lets do this in gradual steps/separate tickets (e.g. "preproces/handle image format X"). I think this is also very related to work on the file/media service by Roy Meissner. I think

IssueThemes and backgrounds are not imported
Description

Themes and backgrounds are removed on import. PPTX2HTML states they have basic support but we don't seem to be using it.

We need to build functions to allow users to import, edit and create themes.

IssueFeatures missing or difficult within CKeditor
Description

Users reported that they were:

  1. unable to alter the format of bullets and numbered lists. It is possible to change the shape and numbering of lists but it is difficult to find this function as it is only available through right-clicking in the list. It is not possible to change the colour of numbers or bullets
  2. unable change the style of headings
  3. symbols missing, in particular the Greek alphabet
  4. limited and confusing UI for altering image properties
  5. colour and font size boxes do not reflect the current settings
  6. borders around text boxes

FYI - new version of CKEditor in development and may address some of these issues.
Klaas: Indeed the new version 4.6 on http://ckeditor.com/ looks good. We now use version 4.5.11. Seems to allow for proper image resize. Perhaps I can also try experimenting with using the CKeditor toolbar (standard/default, see, as opposed to the current use of the inline editor (which cases some problems).
