------- Additional comments from [email protected] Thu Sep 10 17:11:50 +0000 2009 ------- Initially, I thought that swe5411's response reflected a failure to understand the original report because it seemed to miss the initial statement, "I've read the other similar issues where some of the toolbars apparently don't like to "share" a line, and this is different." However, after doing some more testing, I am not sure. My results are a little different from swe5411's, which is annoyingly consistent with the intermittency issue pointed out by scottholbrook I am working from OOo-deve 3.2.0 DEV 300m55 (Build:9418). (I know that m56 is out but haven't upgraded yet. I can retest on this if you think that is desirable.) (1) Open OOo to impress (2) In the presentation wizard, create an Empty Presentation (3) In my system, this comes up with a blank layout (blank slide), with a floating Line and Filling toolbar showing. The following toolbars are checked, when I pull down View|Toolbars -- Drawing, Line & Filling, Presentation, and Standard. I can see these on my screen. I have lost track of whether these are the OOo defaults or results of persistent option settings, but anyway, this is where I start. (4) On the layouts sidebar, click the icon of the Title Slide. None of the toolbars change. But the slide now has a couple of text windows. I click within the top box, "Clikc to add title" and the text formatting toolbar appears as a second row of icons in the top of my OOo window. (5) Type "this is a title" and click outside of the slide. The text appears, the text formatting toolbar vanishes. So far, this is coming-and-going of the toolbar but I do not think this is incorrect behavior. If I click in the textbox, the toolbar comes back. I click out of it, the toolbar goes away. (6) Now it gets confusing. I click on the blank slide layout. There is still a text box, with the text "This is a title". I click in the box, but the text formatting toolbar doesn't come back even though I am editing text. I look in View|Toolbars and the formatting text toolbar is not checked. (7) I click back to the Title Slide layout. No text formatting toolbar. Click inside "This is a title" and the formatting text toolbar appears. (8) Click on the Title, Text layout and the text formatting toolbar goes away. Click inside the "This is a title" textbox and the formatting text toolbar DOES NOT reappear. View|Toolbars does not show a checkmark beside the text formatting toolbar. (9) Click back to the Title Slide layout. Every other time I click in the This is a title textbox at the top of the slide, the Formatting text toolbar has appeared, but THIS TIME, no toolbar. View | Toolbars shows no checkmark. (10) Click on text formatting in the View | Toolbars list to bring up the text formatting toolbar. It appears in the right place at the top of the window. (11) Click outside of the slide (in the gray area surrounding the slide). In the past, clicking here has caused the text formatting toolbar to vanish. This time, the toolbar remains visible. This is expected behavior, because I explicitly said that I want this toolbar on the screen. (12) click the Title, Text layout and the text formatting toolbar stays on the screen (hmmm, I am doing these steps as I write this report. The last time, the toolbar went away, this time it didn't. Dratted intermittent bugs...) (13) Click on the Blank Slide layout. The TEXT FORMATTING TOOLBAR GOES AWAY. View | Toolbars shows no checkmark besides Text Formatting. (14) Click on the Title Slide layout and the toolbar does not come back. (15) Click in the "This is a title" text in the upper textbox, select some text, and the toolbar does not reappear. The symptoms described by scottholbrook and by SWE5411 were slightly different. swe5411 noted that Text Formatting is checked in the toolbar list even though the toolbar is not showing on the screen. I have never seen that. Scottholbrook does not report this but reports that sometimes when the toolbar goes away, it will not come back until restart. I have not seen that, yet, either. But despite these inconsistencies, I think each of us is reporting toolbar-related behavior that is unexpected and inconsistent with the context (e.g. sometimes you get a toolbar when you select the same text on the same slide with the same layout and sometimes you don't). --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
