I believe other factors that initially clouded this issue were related to a slow
degeneration of the program over hours of usage (things like the "Save" icon
staying disabled even though changes have been made since the last save) -
that's a much more serious issue, but I have not been able to replicate it and
have not done hours of work in OOo since m95, so it may be gone.
The disappearing tabs issue works for m109: To demonstrate, it may be easiest
start from a new Impress slide or document:
1) New Presentation, make sure View Menu / Ruler checked (Ruler displayed).
2) Select "Title Slide" from the "Layouts" in the Task Pane.
3) Click on the "Click to add title" text: note that this selects the text box
and places you in edit mode.
4) Exit "edit mode" but keep text box selected: move cursor near to (but not on)
a green square outlining the text box; cursor should change to 4-way arrow (Drag
icon); Left click to exit entry mode, should keep box selected.
5) With cursor in that position (showing the Drag icon), right click; select
"Paragraph..."; then "Tabs" pane. Add some tabs (e.g. 1,3,5 cm or inches). Click
"Ok" to dismiss dialog box.
6) Click on the "Click to add title" text again and note that the newly entered
tabs appear in the Ruler.
7) Click outside to deselect box, Ruler tabs are cleared as they should be.
8) Repeat Step #6 again and note that tabs are no longer there.
If you had entered text the first time entry mode was activated after defining
the tabs (during step #6), then the tabs would still be there.
I have tried several of these "Special" text boxes ("Click to add title", "Click
to add text", Click to add outline"), and they all exhibit this behaviour. I
suspect they are all the same code with specialised default formatting and text.
Note that this is for the "Special" text boxes only and does not apply to the
"Normal" Text boxes added by using the "T" icon on the "Drawing" toolbar. The
latter behave as I would expect: Tabs set within the text box menu apply to all
paragraphs in the box and each paragraph may be individually changed as needed.
Those text box tabs will not disappear either, as described above.
This is a small bug, but I hope that helps.
Doug
