I have an update-- After tinkering with the screen resolution I've discovered that the problem seems to only appear at certain resolutions:
1024 x 768 (stretched) both full screen and windowed-screen display correctly 1280 x 960 (stretched) both full screen and windowed-screen display correctly 1280 x 1024 (stretched) full screen doesn't display correctly, windowed-screen does 1344 x 756 regular: full screen and windowed screen display properly 1344 x 1008 (stretched) full screen doesn't display correctly, but windowed screen does 1600 x 900 (regular) both full screen and windowed-screen display correctly (go figure) 1920 x 1080 (regular) full screen does not display correctly but windowed-screen does anything higher seems to display incorrectly. Since it's the largest screen version of the iMac, I typically have my resolution set at 2560 x 1440, which doesn't display properly in either windowed-screen or full screen. New update: It does this when running LO under Windows 7 too. It's not OS specific. I think it's just a problem with the Metropolis theme definitions.

I'm creating instructional design to teach our 8th grade students how to use LibreOffice Impress. However I'm running into a snag on my own Mac, developing the multimedia presentation. The slideshow utilizes the Metropolis theme. When I play the slide-show in full screen mode, only about 1/4 of the screen shows the blue background. The rest of the background is white, and since the text is white it disappears. I switched it to windowed mode to see if it made any difference. The blue background still doesn't fill the slide area. I've enclosed a jpg screen-shot of what it looks like. Filename: LO_Problem.jpg Here's some of my system specifics: iMac Intel 2.7 GHz Core i7 with 27 inch screen, 12 GB memory. OS X Version 10.7.5 LibreOffice Version 4.0.2.2 (Build ID: 4c82dcdd6efcd48b1d8bba66bfe1989deee49c3) TinderBox: MacOSX TDF Release, Branch:libreoffice-4-0, Time: 2013-03-26_15:52:16 Any ideas what could cause this problem? I'm in a pickle if I can't teach LibreOffice Impress with a Presentation built in LibreOffice Impress! :) Thank you, Rich Lewis Sacred Heart Catholic School, Muenster, TX Director of Technology and Computer Teacher [email protected], [email protected] -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: [email protected] Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
