“The team behind KOffice says that “KOffice 2 will be a much
more flexible application suite than KOffice 1 ever was. The
integration between the components is much stronger, with the
revolutionary Flake Shapes as the central concept. A Flake Shape
can be as simple as a square or a circle or as complex as a chart
or a music score.

“With Flake, any KOffice application can handle any shape. For
instance, KWord can embed bitmap graphics, Krita can embed vector
graphics and Karbon can embed charts. This flexibility does not
only give KOffice unprecedented integration, but also allows new
applications to be created very easily,” the team said.
