Bug ID: 155774
Summary: [Impress][new feature] masters hierarchy / inheritance
Product: LibreOffice
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: enhancement
Priority: medium
Component: Impress
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Description:
Hi,
I think that it might be useful to manage some "children" masters in Impress.
Currently, when you need to customize your layouts (title slide, content
slides, greetings slide, etc.), you need to copy the master for each
customization. Therefore, every time you need to apply a common styling, you
need to update each of the masters (instead of changing it only once for every
masters if you had had a master hierarchy). Example : imagine that you want to
update the font color of all the titles of the "Candy" template available in
Impress 7.3 (see below).
Regards
Steps to Reproduce:
1.File > New > Presentation
2.Select and open the "Candy" template (or any template that has several
masters)
3.View > Master Slide
4.Update the title text format of the 1st master : eg.apply a red color
5.Unfortunately, only the title text format of the 1st master is red, you need
to reproduce this styling to each master
Actual Results:
only the title text of the 1st master is red, you need to reproduce this
styling to each master
Expected Results:
the title text of every master is red (the title text format of every master
has been updated on a single operation)
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: No
Additional Info:
A similar feature is implemented in the M$ software :
