--- Comment #11 from Carlos <cmolin...@hotmail.com> ---
I can confirm reported behaviour in LibreOffice 4.2.6.3; build 420m0(Build:3)
Currently running ubuntu 14.04 LTS (64 bit) on a system with Intel® CPU U7300 @
1.30GHz × 2 and 2.8 GiB RAM.
Expected behaviour is:
1.- User working on any slide, not necessarily first one.
2.- User clicks on "Start slide show (F5)", on the tool bar (or presses F5 for
the same purpose)
3.- Slideshow starts from the current slide (when such setting is enabled).
Otherwise, it should start from first slide
Observed behaviour:
3.- Slideshow ALWAYS starts from first slide (independently if setting "Always
with current page" is set or not)
IMHO, this setting is not as trivial as it may seem. Previous versions worked
as they should by default, and it was intuitive. Now, the ticker in settings
seems as it is not working, since the expected behaviour does not take place.
Somthing might have gone broken in this version. Maybe it has something to do
with the implementation of the presentation console?
Anyway, it should be pretty easy to solve. Either:
a) return to previous behaviour
b) remove "Always with current page" ticker AND enable a new toolbar button
that has shift+F5 functionality (although, it will be rather awkward to have 2
buttons just to start a slide show, side by side... the user will have to
figure out what does what, which is not necessarily intuitive. A BAD solution
would be to force the user to dig this button out from the vault of shortcuts
available in "tools -> personalize -> toolbars.... ULTRA-counter-intuitive"
Hope some smart coder will pay this issue the attention it deserves, tried to
set importance to high, since ease of use is one of LibreOffice's hallmarks...
Cheers.
