            Bug ID: 102055
           Summary: Please provide user-defined variable fields (or
                    variables) like those supported in Writer
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: medium
         Component: Impress
          Assignee: [email protected]
          Reporter: [email protected]

As best I can tell, there exists a feature in Writer that allows user-defined
fields to be created and inserted, but Impress doesn't support anything like
that feature.  I would like to have this feature added to Impress.

The use case I'm thinking of is: In a large-ish presentation one wants to turn
into a template, a variable could be used to unify dynamic text on the title
page text and some other pages where much of the intervening pages are static. 
For example, you have an interdisciplinary process and want to tailor your
presentation to a specific audience, but you need to update text in a few
palaces in-line, so to speak, not merely on the title page and backgrounds as
could be achieved with two user-defined master pages.

Does this make sense?
