Ana Molina Paz <[email protected]> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |[email protected] --- Comment #8 from Ana Molina Paz <[email protected]> --- I suggest to update the title: Bullets and Numbering does not remain the same after demoting or promoting at try to edit them for an MS Office .ppt file Summary: A file that is saved in .ppt format when opened using OpenOffice Impress is retaining the bullets format, but when we try to edit a bullet by either promoting or demoting a bullet point it is losing the bullet style. Also for Numbering bullets and customized alphabet, the next number is not updated with the previous or next number or letter. This issue does not happen if the file is saved in the OpenOffice Impress (.odp) format, and opened and edited using it. Testing Environment: OS: Windows 10 Enterprise 64-bit environment. Processor: i5-6300 CPU @2.30 GHz and Ram: 8GB Apache OpenOffice 4.1.7 Impress AOO417m1(Build:9800) - Rev. 46059c9192 2019-09-03 12:04 MS PowerPoint 2019 used to compare with Impress Scenario 1: Promote and demote Bullets for a ppt file saved on Impress. Steps: 1. Open OpenOffice 2. Select Presentation 3. Create a new presentation e.g. using presentation wizard 4. On the layout add few lines of text 5. Select all lines 6. Go to Format>Bullets and Numbering… 7. Assign any bullets style 8. Demote few bullet lines by clicking Tab also you can Promote by clicking Shift + Tab 9. Go to Files> Save as Type as Microsoft PowerPoint 99/2000/XP (.ppt) option. 10. Open the file saved on OpenOffice 11. Edit the presentation by trying to promote or demote a bullet Actual result: The bullet-style changes to some other shape. Expected result: The Bullets style should remain the same. Scenario 2: Promote and demote Bullets for a pptx file saved on MS PowerPoint 2019. Steps: 1. Have a ppt or a pptx file with bullets e.g Testbulletsppt or/and Testbullletspptx 2. Open the file saved on OpenOffice 3. Edit the presentation by trying to promote or demote a bullet Actual result: The bullet-style changes to some other shape. Expected result: The Bullets style should remain the same. Follow-up tests: • Promote and demote Bullets for an ODP file saved on OpenOffice. This issue is not replicated so It was verified that the Bullets style should remain the same • Using other Bullets style using Tab to Demote and Shift-Tab to Promote. The same issue is replicated • Using Numbers using Tab to Demote and Shift-Tab to Promote. The same issue is replicated. Also, the numbering sequence is lost • Using Graphics bullets using Tab to Demote and Shift-Tab to Promote. The same issue is replicated • Using Customize: Alphabets using Tab to Demote and Shift-Tab to Promote. The same issue is replicated. Also, the numbering sequence is lost • Using Promote and Demote buttons on the menu bar. This issue couldn’t be replicated because the Promote and Demote buttons do not enable in the menu bar. Additional findings from the following tests: 1. I have observed that this problem even happens when trying to save in the new format .pptx or ppt format and opened with OpenOffice Impress but not for ODP format. 2. Not only the bullets are wrong (does not remain the same bullet) Also de the numbering sequence is not updated at demoting or promoting. Compared to Competition: I compare the similar functionality in the MS office PowerPoint document, and the bullets/Number formatting is retained when a specific bullet is either promoted or demoted but the size of the bullets or numbering is not the same. I also noticed that the open ODP file on PowerPoint loses the bullet promote or demote format. This issue should be fixed because it is important to edit ppt or pptx files with the correct bullets to have a clear and good presentation and can share it. For user who use Power Point or OpenOffice or similar -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the issue.
