TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
a) it doesn't appear to have a zoom mode
(the magnifying-glass icon gives you
full-screen mode, instead, just the thing
you want when trying to draw some objects
to reasonable tolerances);
b) I created a simple compound object from
three elipses and a rectangle, grouped them,
then tried to re-size the group -- the group
bounding box remained the original size, and
the components all shrank away from each other
-- undo was not able to recover to the "pre-shrink"
state;
c) I tried the "Help", and it was that nasty HTML
stuff that deliberately disables the browser's
"Back" button -- never mind that most of the
help items were just empty place-holders...
So, is there a useful PowerPoint-ish thingumie out
there, for Linux?
Who has had some success with what?
Thanks,
