transparent gradient stuff.
+== SdrObject ==
+
+The shapes you can see in LibreOffice (like rectangle, etc.) are SdrObjects.
+They are declared as a hierarchy:
+
+SdrObject <- SdrAttrObj <- E3dObject <- E3dCompoundObject <- E3dCubeObj
+ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ | | ^ ^
+ | | | | | | | | +--- E3dExtrudeObj
+ | | | | | | | +----- E3dLatheObj
+ | | | | | | +------- E3dPolygonObj
+ | | | | | +--------- E3dSphereObj
+ | | | | +--- E3dScene...
+ | | | |
+ | | | +--- SdrTextObj <- SdrObjCustomShape...
+ | | | ^ ^ ^ ^ ^
+ | | | | | | | +--- SdrEdgeObj...
+ | | | | | | +----- SdrMeasureObj...
+ | | | | | +------- SdrPathObj...
+ | | | | +--------- SdrRectObj...
+ | | | +----------- SdrTableObj...
+ | | +--- SdrObjGroup...
+ | + ---- SdrPageObj...
+ +------- SdrVirtObj...
+
+The above is incomplete of course.
+
+Associated are the SdrPaintView's - they have quite a deep chain of
+inheritance, where each new class adds a bit of functionality:
+
+SdrPaintView <- SdrSnapView <- SdrMarkView <- SdrEditView <- SdrPolyEditView
+ ^
+ +----------------------------------------------------------------+
+ |
+ SdrGlueEditView <- SdrObjEditView <- SdrExchangeView <- SdrDragView
+ ^
+ +----------------------------------------------------------------+
+ |
+ SdrCreateView <- SdrView
+
+From SdrView on, it is not flat, but a real hierarchy again.
