Defines the grid settings for creating and moving objects.
Specifies the settings for the configurable grid on your document pages. This grid helps you determine the exact position of your objects. You can also set this grid in line with the "magnetic" snap grid. If you have activated the snap grid but wish to move or create individual objects without snap positions, keep the Ctrl key pressed to deactivate this function for as long as needed.
Defines the unit of measure for the spacing between grid points on the X-axis.
Defines the grid points spacing in the desired unit of measurement on the Y-axis.
Specifies the number of intervals between grid points on the X-axis.
Specifies the number of intervals between grid points on the Y-axis.
Specifies whether to change the current grid settings symmetrically. The resolution and subdivision for the X and Y axes remain the same.
Snaps the edge of a dragged object to the nearest snap line when you release the mouse. You can also define this setting by using the Snap to Snap Lines icon, which is available in the Option bar in a presentation or drawing document.
Specifies whether to align the contour of the graphic object to the nearest page margin. The cursor or a contour line of the graphics object must be in the snap range. In a presentation or drawing document, this function can also be accessed with the Snap to Page Margins icon in the Option bar.
Specifies whether to align the contour of the graphic object to the border of the nearest graphic object. The cursor or a contour line of the graphics object must be in the snap range. In a presentation or drawing document, this function can also be accessed with the Snap to Object Border icon in the Option bar.
Specifies whether to align the contour of the graphic object to the points of the nearest graphic object. This only applies if the cursor or a contour line of the graphics object is in the snap range. In a presentation or drawing document, this function can also be accessed with the Snap to Object Points icon in the option bar.
Defines the snap distance between the mouse pointer and the object contour. StarOffice Impress snaps to a snap point if the mouse pointer is nearer than the distance selected in the Snap range field.
Specifies that graphic objects are restricted vertically, horizontally or diagonally (45°) when creating or moving them. You can temporarily deactivate this setting by pressing the Shift key.
Specifies that a square is created based on the longer side of a rectangle when the Shift key is pressed before you release the mouse button. This also applies to an ellipse (a circle will be created based on the longest diameter of the ellipse). When the Extend edges box is not selected, a square or a circle is created based on the shorter side or diameter.
Specifies that graphic objects can only be rotated within the rotation angle that you selected in the Object Rotation Limit field. If you want to rotate an object outside the defined angle, press the Ctrl key when rotating. Release the key when the desired rotation angle is reached.
Defines the angle for point reduction. When working with polygons, you might find it useful to reduce their editing points.
