Priority: medium
Bug ID: 66469
Assignee: [email protected]
Summary: FILESAVE: Most recent change in presentation not saved
when using animations
Severity: normal
Classification: Unclassified
OS: Linux (All)
Reporter: [email protected]
Hardware: Other
Whiteboard: BSA
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Version: 4.0.4.2 release
Component: Presentation
Product: LibreOffice
Problem description:
LibreOffice Impress discards changes to documents without notice in certain
circumstances. It happens when the object in question is part of a custom
animation and if no other content is modified before saving.
This is actually really annoying as it may lead to whole paragraphs of text
getting lost or to other corrections not being saved (and as such, errors or
typos getting re-introduced without noticing).
Steps to reproduce:
1. Create an empty presentation
2. Add some text such as "Test0"
3. Select the entered text (or the parent text box) and add a custom animation
(doesn't matter which, but let's say "Appear")
4. Save and close the document
5. Open it again and modify the text (Make "Test0" read "Text1")
6. Without editing anything else, click save (or press Ctrl+S) and close the
presentation
7. Re-open again and notice that the last change did not get saved (the page
still reads "Test0")
Current behavior:
The most recent change done to any animated item is not saved, unless something
else is modified afterwards.
Above test case shows "Test0".
Expected behavior:
Everything which is visible on-screen should be saved to the file and should
look the same after re-opening the file.
Above test cases should yield "Test1".
Further information:
- The list of custom animations does not update properly either (i.e. when
"Test0" is changed to "Test1", the animation list still says "Test0" unless
something else is edited or focus is switched to another slide).
- While I am not familiar with the LibreOffice code, it looks like some event
is not fired in this case which would usually be responsible for updating
internal state at several places (internal ODF representation, custom animation
list pane).
- Removing the custom animation and repeating the test (changing content,
saving, reloading) will still show the bug! The bug only vanishes if the
document is re-opened after the custom animation has been removed.
Environment:
- This was first noticed on Kubuntu 13.04 with the bundled libreoffice-4.0.2.2
- also reproduced on: Ubuntu 13.04, bundled libreoffice-4.0.2.2, different
machine
- also reproduced on: Ubuntu 13.04, libreoffice.org's 4.0.4.2 packages
(LibreOffice_4.0.4.2_Linux_x86-64_deb)
- also reproduced on: Ubuntu 13.04, libreoffice.org's 4.1.0.1 packages
(LibreOffice_4.1.0.1_Linux_x86-64_deb)
(all tests on x86_64)
Please let me know if I can supply you with any more debugging information.
Operating System: Ubuntu
Version: 4.0.4.2 release
