Bug ID: 146985
Summary: Custom animations not working for some elements of a
bulleted list
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 6.4 all versions
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: minor
Priority: medium
Component: Impress
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Description:
I have a similar problem in that often times I cannot add the last line or two
of a bulleted list to the custom animation pane. I can select the text and
click the '+' button, but it will not go into the list. Or if there are no
animations for the slide and several bullet points, it may only add the first
three or four bullets and not the last ones.
Sometimes it will add them all, but quite often the only way to add them all is
to select the textbox itself and add it which will create a nested list of
animations, then I have to delete the first item so it will appear with the
slide instead of on click.
I haven't noticed a reproducible pattern, but it happens to me every week when
I'm making a new presentation, usually multiple times.
As a side note, I did find a problem once where some of the slides had
animations which were not connected to any element so you had to click once
which did nothing. The only way to remove it was to manually go into the xml
file and remove those element-less animations.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a bulleted list of multiple items (usually 4 or more)
2. Select some of the text of each line
3. Click '+' Add Effect on the custom animation pane
Actual Results:
The final element or two of the list will not appear in the animation pane
Expected Results:
All of the elements should appear in the custom animation pane.
Reproducible: Sometimes
User Profile Reset: Yes
Additional Info:
You may need to duplicate the slide and add or change items to activate the
bug. It does not happen ever time.
Trying to add the remaining lines again does not work. Or occasionally adds
them as a blank item in the custom animation pane. Sometimes changing slides
and coming back will fix the problem.
This also happens sometimes if I duplicate a slide and add a new bullet point.
Selecting any part of that text will not add the animation when Add Effect is
clicked.
Not sure what the earliest affected version is. I know it affected 6.4 and is
still here in 7.2.2.2, I think it was even earlier.
The work around is to remove all the items from the animation pane, select the
Text Frame itself and choose Add Effect. Then all the list elements will be
added but nested under the first element.
