For OOo what is expected to happen is when following the steps: 1. Open a new presentation. 2. View Master Slide 3. Change Page Size to Custom: 14,80 cm x 10,00 cm landscape. 4. The lower text box now has a size that fits inside the page. (e.g. 14,00 x 6,80 cm) 5. Exit Master Slide View. 6. Create a new page. The new page has a box size that fits the page. (the same as above) 7. Save and Close the file. 8. Reopen the file. 9. Create a new page. The new page has the same configuration as the Master Slide. 4) What happens instead for OOo & LibreOffice is now the box extends downwards vertically below the Master Slide settings. WORKAROUND: Reset the master page box size every time after reopening the file.
