Description Anders71 2021-10-03 15:54:49 UTC
Description:
I just switched from MS ppt to Libreoffice. I noticed that, in Impress, I can zoom out quite a bit outside of the white slide itself. However, the space to add items, such as text boxes, is quite limited to just a bit more than the white slide area. How do I increase the default usable size, for each slide? I want to be able to place items far outside of the commonly used white slide area.
If I zoom out the maximum amount there is only a small portion of that that can be used. I want to be able to place items further out from the white slide itself.

Steps to Reproduce:
1.open Impress
2.zoom out to 5%
3.the white actual slide is small in the middle.
4. add a square and make it as large as possible, this is the maximum amount of available space (the space includes the white slide and a small part of the grey area outside of it).
5. there is much grey space outside of the rectangle which can not be utilized.

Actual Results:
5. there is much grey space outside of the rectangle which can not be utilized.

Expected Results:
6. The whole of the grey area should be available to place items in.


Reproducible: Always
