[Bug 90476] Image cropping in Calc needs mouse tools

https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=90476

--- Comment #6 from timdeaton <ti...@timdeaton.org> ---
I am very sorry to see the attitude expressed in Edwin's post.  After all, I'm
not asking for anything that hasn't been in Microsoft Excel for more than 17
years.  (If Excel could do it in 1997, surely Calc should be able to do it by
2014.)

I frequently want to crop & overlay two Google Maps screenshots so they fit
together.  Or save an entire year of cropped screenshots of payroll tax
confirmation screens on the same spreadsheet page. 

Excel is not a graphic editor either.  Yet it's far easier to use it for the
purposes I described than Word or Paint.  By contrast, doing the same thing in
OpenOffice Calc 3.x is torture.  (I haven't used 4.x, but the comments here
lead me to believe it hasn't changed.)

I'll leave the status for appropriate project managers to correct.  I sincerely
hope that you will take another look at this and decide to reopen it.

Thanks,
Tim
