Language from the current draft.
OK, if we say what the specified values of the attribute are, and we give brief statements of the effect, is that enough or is the rest implementation defined?
Also, aren't there other attributes (or styles) that introduce parameters that further govern these texture-oriented operations? Suggestion: Remove "defined" from "the defined values ..." Suggestion: Find something different than "blends the texture blend color with the object color." Is this not just "blends the texture color with the object color?" [PS: I still think there is something missing here about the texture and the color where in the texture, but I am not checking into that now.] Dennis, good catch on the "texture blend color" to "texture color." Can omit "defined" in this case but necessary for ODF 1.2 since I think that should be part of conformance, following the "defined" values.
I notice that we haven't cured the defect. Although we define what the attribute values signify, they still don't give any semantics, or links to semantics for at least blend and modulate. I'm not sure that there isn't some subltety of replace that is not being captured as well.
Our graphic expert Armin Le Grand explained that those expressions would be term of art and are commonly used such as by the common OpenGL library.
For example, OpenOffice even uses the algorithm from the OpenGL library, which is not implementing a standard and can not be referenced easily by the ODF specification. If it can't be referenced, then we need to define it. If we can refer to the Zip specification, we can certainly refer to the OpenGL specification. I assume that OpenGL 1.5 is appropriate for ODF 1.0, but maybe an earlier one is intended?
Also, even if there is reference to a source, there is also needing to confirm what parameters and blending functions are assumed, if they are specifiable in OpenGL but not in ODF. That or we need to say that such are implementation-dependent. Updated the resolution to reflect the way that bulleted text is used (with the bullet-symbol signified by "*" here) in CD04-rev07.
Errata 02 - ODF 1.2 Reconciliation:
ODF 1.2 Part 1 20.87 dr3d:texture-mode has equivalent language to that accomplished with Errata 02. |
