Time	Narration
00:01	Welcome to the Spoken Tutorial on Common Editing and Printing Functions in LibreOffice Draw.
00:08	In this tutorial, you will learn how to:
00:10	* Set margins for the Draw page
00:13	* Insert page numbers, Date and time
00:16	* Undo and Redo actions
00:18	* Rename a page and
00:20	* Print a page.
00:22	Here, we are using: Ubuntu Linux, version 10.04 and LibreOffice Suite, version 3.3.4.
00:33	Let’s open the file 'WaterCycle' and select the page that has the 'WaterCycle' diagram.
00:40	Let’s set Page Margins for this drawing.
00:44	Why are Page Margins necessary?
00:46	Page Margins determine the space within which the objects will be placed inside a page.
00:53	For example, we may need to print the drawing and file it.
00:57	Margins ensure that there is adequate space on the sides
01:01	so that a part of the figure is not cut or hidden when we print it.
01:07	Let’s set Page Margins and then print the WaterCycle drawing.
01:11	Let’s say the paper size that we use to print this diagram, is not the standard size.
01:18	It has a width of 20 cms and a height of 20 cms.
01:23	It also requires a bottom margin of 1.5 cms.
01:29	To set these measurements from the Main menu, select Format and click Page.
01:35	The Page Setup dialog-box appears.
01:38	Select the Page tab.
01:41	In the Width field, enter the value “20” and in the Height field “20”.
01:47	Under Margins, in the Bottom field, enter '1.5'.
01:54	To the right, you will see a preview of the Draw page.
01:58	This preview displays the changes made to the Draw page.
02:02	Click OK.
02;04	How does the drawing look?
02:06	It spills out of the page!
02:08	This also means that a part of the drawing will be lost when it is printed.
02:14	You must ensure that:
02:15	* The drawings are always within the margins.
02:18	* When you draw, no part of the drawing spills out of the margin.
02:23	Therefore, it is a good practice to set up the page margins before you begin your drawing.
02:29	Again, from the Main menu, select Format and click Page.
02:35	The Page Setup dialog-box appears.
02:38	Click on the Page tab.
02:40	Click the Format drop-down list and select "A4".
02:45	This is the original margin that we had set.
02:48	Click OK.
02:52	The drawing is placed within the margins.
02:55	You can also access the Page setup dialog-box from the Draw page
03:00	by right-clicking on the page and using the context menu.
03:05	Let’s click Cancel and exit the dialog-box.
03:09	Now, let us insert page numbers, date, time and the author’s name.
03:15	Let us select the page with the WaterCycle diagram and insert a page number.
03:21	Go to the Main menu, select Insert and click Fields.
03:27	The list of Fields is displayed.
03:31	Fields contain values that are automatically generated by Draw.
03:35	We simply have to insert a Field and the value generated by Draw.
03:41	Let us click on Page number.
03:43	A text-box with the number '1' is inserted on the Draw page.
03:48	Let’s adjust the size of this text-box and make it a little smaller.
03:55	Now, let us drag the box and place it at the bottom right corner of the page.
04:01	To move the number box smoothly, select the number box and press the Shift key.
04:07	Now, let’s move it further down.
04:11	Let’s check if the next number has been inserted on page two of this Draw file.
04:17	It does not have a page number!
04:20	The page number is inserted only in the page where we inserted the field!
04:26	Now, let’s learn how to change the page number format.
04:30	From the Main menu, click on Format and select Page.
04:36	The Page Setup dialog-box appears.
04:39	Click on the Page tab.
04:41	Under the Layout settings, select Format.
04:45	From the drop-down list, select a, b, c.
04:49	Click OK.
04:52	The page numbering has changed from 1, 2, 3 to a, b, c.
04:58	Likewise, you can change it to any format.
05:01	Let’s learn how to insert Date and Time fields.
05:05	You can also insert Date and Time stamps on your Draw page.
05:10	You can do so by clicking on Insert and Fields.
05:14	One is Date(fixed) and Time(fixed).
05:18	The other is Date(variable) and Time(variable).
05:23	The Date (fixed) and Time (fixed) options insert the current date and time.
05:29	These date and time values will not be updated.
05:33	The Date (variable) and the Time (variable) options, on the other hand,
05:37	are automatically updated as and when you open the file.
05:42	Let’s insert the Time (variable) here.
05:46	Now, let us drag the box and place it above the page number at the bottom right corner of the page.
05:56	The time inserted will be updated to the current time whenever you open the Draw page.
06:03	Let us now enter the name of the author who has created this file.
06:08	Here, we shall setup the author’s name on page one as- “Teacher A. B.”
06:17	So, let’s go to Page one.
06:19	Go to the Main menu, select Tools and click Options.
06:24	The Options dialog-box appears.
06:27	In the Options dialog-box, click on LibreOffice and then click on User Data.
06:34	On the right hand side of the dialog-box, you can enter the user data information.
06:40	You can enter the details here as per your requirements.
06:44	In the "First/Last Name/Initials", let’s enter the text "Teacher", 'A', and 'B' respectively.
06:53	Click OK.
06:55	Now, from the Main menu, click Insert, select Fields and click Author.
07:02	The name Teacher A B is inserted in a text-box.
07:07	Let’s drag this box and place it just above the Time field, at the bottom right corner of the Draw page.
07:15	Now, what if we want to remove the fields we inserted, in the Draw page?
07:21	Simply select the text-box and press Delete key.
07:25	Let’s delete the field Author Name.
07:28	And what if we want to undo this action?
07:31	Simple.. you can undo any action by pressing Ctrl and 'Z' keys together.
07:38	The action that was last executed, that is, the deletion of the Author field, is undone.
07:45	The field is visible again.
07:48	We can undo or redo actions from the Main menu too.
07:53	From the Main menu, select Edit and click Redo.
07:57	The Author’s name is no longer visible!
08:00	Let’s press the Ctrl+Z keys and undo all the field insertions we made.
08:06	You can also use short-cut keys from the key board for the undo and redo commands.
08:13	Press the Ctrl and Z keys together to undo an action.
08:18	Press the Ctrl and Y keys together to redo an action.
08:23	Pause this tutorial and do this assignment.
08:26	Change the Author’s name and Save it.
08:29	Now, add two more arrows to the page.
08:33	Insert a page number and date on page two.
08:38	Now, undo and redo the last five actions.
08:42	Check if the Undo and Redo options undo all the actions or if some actions cannot be undone.
08:51	Let’s name this page “WaterCycleSlide”.
08:54	Select the slide in the Pages pane, right-click and select Rename Page.
09:00	The Rename Slide dialog-box appears.
09:03	In the Name field, let us enter the name "WaterCycleSlide".
09:08	Click OK.
09:10	Now, let’s place the cursor over this page.
09:14	Can you see the name “WaterCycleSlide” displayed here?
09:18	It is a good practice to assign a name that is relevant to the page.
09:23	Now, let’s set printing options and print the WaterCycle diagram.
09:28	In the Main menu, click File then click Print.
09:33	The Print dialog-box appears.
09:36	To know about the settings under General and Options tabs,
09:41	please see the tutorial on Viewing and printing Documents in the LibreOffice Writer series.
09:48	On the left side, you will see the page preview area.
09:53	The right side of the Print dialog-box comprises four tabs:
09:58	General, LibreOffice Draw, Page Layout, Options.
10:04	Let’s look at the options specific to LibreOffice Draw.
10:09	Click on the LibreOffice Draw tab.
10:13	Let’s check the boxes Page name and Date and Time.
10:17	This will print the page name, date and time along with the drawing.
10:23	Let us select Original colors and Fit to printable page to print the drawing.
10:29	Click on Print to print the 'WaterCycle' drawing from your computer.
10:34	If you have configured your printer correctly then your drawing should begin printing now.
10:40	This brings us to the end of this tutorial on LibreOffice Draw.
