--- Comment #3 from Dean Mackenzie <[email protected]> ---
The replication steps are a little unclear (though they do work), as setting up
text that allows the Expand Slide option to be used doesn't appear to be as
straight-forward as first thought.  I've stepped through what I did to
replicate the bug below (there may be other ways of doing this).

Operating System: Windows 7 (64 bit)
OpenOffice Version: 3.4.1 & 4.0.0

Replication Steps
1. Create a blank presentation
2. In the text pane, create 6 - 7 lines of text
3. Change the font of the text
4. Change the font size of the text
5. Change the font colour of the text
6. Change to Outline view
7. Highlight all of the lines and promote them (using the left-pointing arrow
button on the tool bar)
8. Highlight 2 - 3 lines and demote them (using right-pointing arrow button)
9. Select a promoted line which now has at least 1 sub point under it and
select Insert - Expand Slide

Alternate replication (also a little quicker)
1. Create a blank presentation
2. Change to Outline view
3. Enter in however many lines of text (at least 3 - 4)
4. Highlight the text and change the font, colour and size
5. Highlight a couple of lines and demote them
6. Click on the line above the demoted points and select Insert - Expand Slide

It's on selecting the Insert - Expand Slide option (and the sub points of text
"expanding" to their own slides) that the "expanded" text loses the font,
colour and size that had been previously applied (other text not involved in
the expansion retains its font settings).  You can observe this happening in
the Slides pane on the left of the application - prior to expanding, the slide
containing text has the formatting applied to it.  On expanding, the text has
reverted to black Arial text at 44 pt.  This can be observed in the Normal and
Slide Sorter views.

Follow Up Tests
1. Tried expanding sub points at different parts of the list i.e. first line,
last line, a middle line (bug occurred with all of these).  
2. After changing the font, colour and size of several points, then created a
summary slide of a slide with several sub-points.  Interesting to note that
when the summary slide is created, the font settings are not applied to the
copied text (i.e. it uses black Arial at 44 pt as well).  Appears to be a
similar issue to the Expand Slide bug.
3. After changing font, colour and size of several points, created a duplicate
slide.  The font settings WERE copied across on this occasion.  The
inconsistency between duplicating a slide and expanding / creating a summary
slide indicates to me that this is a problem.

Note - While not relevant to the bug at hand, I did notice an issue where
expanding a slide that wasn't the last one deleted the last top-level slide
(almost "replacing" it with the expanded slides).  In another case, when I
expanded the slide I lost the main point when the two demoted points were
spread across separate slides. I'll follow up these seperately (I'm not sure if
this is expected behaviour or not) and log a separate bug if one doesn't yet
exist.
