Bug ID: 154796
Summary: Weird things (don't) happen when trying to create a

Product: LibreOffice
Version: 7.5.1.2 release
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium

The so-called presentation styles, before and after
Impress has a category of "styles", which aren't actually styles, named
"Presentation Styles" (see bug 154492). These are really elements of Master
Slides rather than styles of anything.
Regardless, one can - in theory - create "New" styles of this kind from a
regular slide: There's a "New..." item on the context menu of the sidebar with
this category selected; and if one has introduced an object to a slide which
doesn't originate in the Master - the "New..." is enabled. What does it do,
though?
1. Create a new Impress presentation
2. Using the Menus, choose Insert > Text Box
3. Enter some text into your textbox to feel nice and grounded, e.g. "hello
world"
4. Exit the text editing mode and select your textbox
5. Ensure the styles sidebar is opened
6. Choose the "Presentation Styles" category (second from the left if you're
using an LTR UI)
7. Right-click the empty area after existing items
8. In the context menu, choose "New..."
Expected result:
Actually, I have no idea what to expect. What does this even mean? I suppose
some kind of dialog should pop up for creating a new... style...? I don't know
really.
Actual Result:
All existing items in the category become sub-items of the Background "style".
WTF?? This thing is so broken! :-(
