| 00:01 | Welcome to the spoken tutorial about Setting Preferences in LibreOffice Draw. |
| 00:06 | In this tutorial, you will learn how to set the following preferences:
|
| 00:18 | Here we are using Ubuntu Linux version 10.04 as our operating system and
LibreOffice Suite version 3.3.4. |
| 00:29 | Let us open the file 3D ObjectsChart that we had saved earlier. And go to page 1. |
| 00:40 | Suppose we want to add descriptions to this file for later reference. |
| 00:45 | To do so, from the Main menu, select File and click Properties. |
| 00:50 | You will see the Properties dialog box. |
| 00:56 | Click the General tab. All information that is relevant to the file is listed here. |
| 01:02 | Please note: we can only view the file details here. You cannot make any changes. |
| 01:09 | Next, click on the Description tab. |
| 01:13 | Here we can enter the Title, Subject, Keywords and Comments as per your requirement.
|
| 01:20 | This information can be used as reference later. |
| 01:25 | In the Title field, let us type 3D Objects Chart. |
| 01:30 | In the Subject field, we will type 3D Objects Comparisons. |
| 01:37 | In Keywords, we’ll type 3D and 3D Effects. |
| 01:42 | Finally, in the Comments field, let us type Learning about File Properties. |
| 01:48 | It is a good practise to type information that is relevant to the Draw file. |
| 01:54 | In addition to the properties present in the Description tab, you may want to set your own properties. |
| 02:00 | For example, you may want to know: The date on which the document was prepared |
| 02:05 | The editor of the document |
| 02:07 | The client for whom the document was prepared, etc. |
| 02:11 | Draw has features that help you customize this information. |
| 02:17 | In the Properties dialog box, click Custom Properties.
|
| 02:23 | Here you will see three fields: Name, Type and Value. |
| 02:30 | Let’s click the Add button at the bottom-right. |
| 02:33 | You will now see drop down-boxes under each field. |
| 02:40 | Let us click on the Name drop-down and select the option Date Completed. |
| 02:46 | In the Type drop-down, we will select Date Time. |
| 02:51 | The Value field, will now indicate date and time. |
| 02:55 | Let us not change the date. |
| 02:57 | In the Time field, let us enter 10:30:33. |
| 03:05 | Now you know the date on which the document was prepared. |
| 03:09 | Let us add another field now. Click Add. |
| 03:14 | You will see a second list of drop-down boxes. |
| 03:21 | In the Name drop-down, let us select Checked by. |
| 03:25 | For the Type field, let us select Text. |
| 03:29 | In Value, type the text “ABC”. |
| 03:33 | Click OK. That’s how you add your own properties to a Draw file. |
| 03:39 | Now, let’s learn how to delete a property that we created. |
| 03:44 | Go to the Main menu, click on File and select Properties. |
| 03:51 | In the Properties dialog box, click Custom Properties. |
| 03:55 | Let us delete the first property Checked by. |
| 04:01 | Click the Remove Property button on the right. The property is deleted. |
| 04:07 | Click OK. |
| 04:11 | You can save multiple versions of the Draw file, too!
This feature is called Versions. |
| 04:17 | For example, You may add objects on the first day and save it. |
| 04:22 | The next day you may modify the drawing. |
| 04:24 | You may want to have a copy of both the original drawing and the modified drawing. |
| 04:31 | Let us save the file using the Versions option. |
| 04:33 | From the Main menu, go to File and click Versions. |
| 04:39 | You will see the Versions dialog box. |
| 04:42 | Click on the Save New Version button. |
| 04:47 | You will see the Insert Version Comment dialog box. |
| 04:51 | Let’s type the comment Version One. |
| 04:55 | Click on OK and then click on Close. |
| 05:00 | Now let us change the text in the title Geometry in Two D Shapes and Three D Shapes. |
| 05:07 | Let’s change the colour of the text to blue. |
| 05:18 | Let us save the file using the Versions option. |
| 05:22 | From the Main menu, go to File and click on Versions. |
| 05:26 | Click on the Save New Version button. |
| 05:30 | The Insert Version Comment dialog appears. |
| 05:34 | Type the comment Version Two. |
| 05:36 | Click OK. |
| 05:40 | There are now two versions listed here - Version One and Version Two. |
| 05:46 | We know that Version One is the file with the black coloured title font. |
| 05:51 | And Version Two is the file with the blue coloured title font. |
| 05:54 | Let us select Version One and click on Open. |
| 06:00 | We can see the version with the black coloured title font. |
| 06:05 | You can enable automatic saving of versions, every time you close a Draw file. |
| 06:11 | To do so, click on File and then click on Versions. |
| 06:15 | Now a check-box option which says Always save a version on closing. |
| 06:23 | Check this box. |
| 06:24 | This will ensure that every time you close the Draw file, a new version will be saved. Click Close |
| 06:34 | You can also set the viewing preferences for your Draw file. |
| 06:38 | You can view your drawing in Color, Gray scale or Black and White |
| 06:44 | By default, we view the Draw file in colour. |
| 06:48 | Let us change the view to Gray Scale. |
| 06:53 | Click on View, click Color/Grayscale and select Gray Scale. |
| 06:59 | You will see that the objects are now displayed in grey. |
| 07:03 | Now let’s change the view to Black and White. |
| 07:08 | From the Main Menu, select View, click Color/Grayscale and select Black and White. |
| 07:17 | You will see that the objects are now displayed in black-and-white. |
| 07:25 | You can switch the view back to colour again. |
| 07:29 | To do so, click on View, click Color/Grayscale and select Color. |
| 07:36 | The drawing is again displayed in colour. |
| 07:43 | This brings us to the end of this tutorial. |
