------- Additional comments from beckyfied...@openoffice.org Thu May 27 01:20:06 +0000 2010 ------- Comments from beckyfiedler on Wednesday, May 26, 2010. I was able to replicate two issues indicated in this report on a Macintosh computer. Issue 1. Lost slide renames after a save to PPT format. Issue 2. Lost a shape with an interaction attached after a save to PPT format. Build: OOo-dev 3.3.0, DEV300m78 (Build:9501) Configuration: Mac OS 10.5.8 with 4 GB RAM ************************************************** Issue 1: Lost slide renames after save to PPT ************************************************** REPLICATION STEPS 1. Create new empty presentation using the presentation wizard. 2. Add a second slide to the presentation. 3. Rename the slides. I used Home for the first slide and Introduction for the second slide (See picture 1) but other names seem to replicate as well. 4. Save file using PPT format. 5. Close file. 6. Reopen file. 7. The slide names in the reopened file have returned to the default Slide 1 and Slide 2 names. (See picture 2) FOLLOW-UP TESTS * Created a new presentation following steps 1-4 as above. Save to .odp format does not lose the new names of the slides after closing and reopening the file. ******************************************************************** Issue 2: Lost shape with an interaction attached after save to PPT ******************************************************************** REPLICATION STEPS 1. Create new empty presentation using the presentation wizard. 2. Add a second slide to the presentation. 3. Add Rectangle shape to the second slide. 4. Add Interaction (at mouse click go to first slide) to Rectangle shape. (See picture 3) 5. Save file using PPT format. 6. Close file. 7. Reopen file. 8. The Rectangle Shape with Interaction is no longer in the presentation. (See picture 4) FOLLOW-UP TESTS * Created new empty presentation with two slides and a Rectangle shape. Saved to ppt format, closed, and reopened. The file did not retain the shape on the second slide. (See picture 5) * Created new empty presentation with two slides and a Rectangle shape. Saved to .odp format, closed, and reopened. The file retained the shape on the second slide. (See picture 5) * Created new empty presentation with two slides and a Rectangle shape. Included Interaction (mouse click going to first slide) on the Rectangle shape. Saved to .odp format, closed, and reopened. The file retained the shape with the Interaction. ******************** ADDITIONAL COMMENTS ******************** 1. Should Issue 111833 be split into two? 2. The combination of issues meganxdavies raised in her report is vitally important to many students who are attending colleges and universities in preparation for teaching children in grades K-12. Schools and Colleges of Education require presentations very much like the one meganxdavies was working on in the file she attached. Furthermore, including 46 Action Buttons (as meganxdavies did) would not be unusual in such a presentation. At many institutions, creating an electronic portfolio presentation is a condition for graduation. Collecting such portfolios is very important to the institutions in order to maintain their teacher program accreditation (NCATE). This is very serious to students, professors, and administrators working to prepare new teachers. As a former professor of education, I am very familiar with the task meganxdavies was trying to perform. Although the file she provided didn't include "push buttons" and "control details," my experience leads me to believe that she was describing Action Buttons (as the term is used with PowerPoint). I would expect the "Action Buttons" to serve a navigation function as well as to hyperlink to web sites; other OOo files; and miscellaneous file types. Although I was able to reduce this problem to losing the shape after saving to PPT format, it's important that both shape and attached interaction are maintained and that the interactive button works from PPT format. Many university professors can not and will not read files in formats other than Microsoft's. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
