Divya <[email protected]> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |[email protected] --- Comment #7 from Divya <[email protected]> --- I could successfully reproduce the bug on my computer with the below mentioned configuration. Testing Environment: • Windows 7 Enterprise, 64 Bit. • HP Elite Book, • Processor: i5-6300 CPU @2.30 GHz and Ram: 8GB • Open Office Writer-4.1.1, AOO411m6(Build:9775) - Rev. 1617669 • MS PowerPoint 2016 Steps to Reproduce: Method 1: Using Impress 1. Open a new Impress document. 2. Select any layout and add few lines of text. 3. Select all lines and assign any bullets style. (Format>Bullets and Numbering) 4. Demote few bullet lines. 5. Save the presentation as .ppt () format, you can do that by selecting the Save as Type as Microsoft PowerPoint 99/2000/XP (.ppt) option. (File>Save As>) 6. Now open the file using OO Impress. 7. Edit the presentation by trying to promote or demote a bullet, and you will observer that the bullet style changes to some other shape. Method 2: Using MS Power Point 1. Open a new MS PowerPoint document. 2. Select any layout and add few lines of text. 3. Select all lines and assign any bullets style. (Home>Bullets option) 4. Demote few bullet lines. 5. Save the presentation, it will save in the .ppt or .pptx based on the version you have. 6. Now open the file using OO Impress. 7. Edit the presentation by trying to promote or demote a bullet, and you will observer that the bullet style changes to some other shape. Following are the follow up tests which I did: Test 1. Using Bullets: Using the above created file, select a style of bullets and save the file in .ppt format. Open the file and edit the file by clicking on a bullet, just between the bullet and the text and try to promote or demote. Expected result: The Bullets style should remain the same. Actual result: The bullets style changes to a random new shape. And on further demoted or prompted it changes to a next shape. Test 2. Using Numbers: Using the above created file, select a style of Numbers and save the file in .ppt format. Open the file using OO impress and edit the file by clicking on a number, just between the number and the text and try to promote or demote. Expected result: The Number style should remain the same. Actual result: The number style changes to a random new shape in my test it changed to regular bullets. And on further demoted or prompted it changes to a next shape. Test 3. Using Graphics bullets: Using the above created file, select a style of Graphics under the Bullets Numbering option, and save the file in .ppt format. Open the file using OO impress and edit the file by clicking on one of the line, just between the alphabet and the text and try to promote or demote. Expected result: The graphic style should remain the same. Actual result: The graphic bullet changes to a random new shape in my test it changed to regular bullets. And on further demoted or prompted it changes to a next shape. Test 4. Using Alphabets: Using the above created file, select a style of Alphabets under the Bullets Numbering option, and save the file in .ppt format. Open the file using OO impress and edit the file by clicking on one of the line, just between the alphabet and the text and try to promote or demote. Expected result: The Alphabets style should remain the same. Actual result: The Alphabets bullet changes to a random new shape in my test it changed to regular bullets. And on further demoted or prompted it changes to a next shape. Test 5. Using Tab and Shift Tab: Using the above created file, select a style of bullet under the Bullets Numbering option, and save the file in .ppt format. Open the file using OO impress and edit the file by clicking on one of the line, just between the alphabet and the text and try to promote or demote using Tab and Shift Tab Expected result: The bullet style should remain the same. Actual result: The bullet changes to a random new shape in my test it changed to regular bullets. And on further demoted or prompted it changes to a next shape. Test 6. Using Promote and Demote Buttons on menu bar: Using the above created file, select a style of bullet under the Bullets Numbering option, and save the file in .ppt format. Open the file using OO impress and edit the file by clicking on one of the line, just between the alphabet and the text and try to promote or demote using the buttons on the menu bar (Right and Left Arrow buttons). Expected result: The bullet style should remain the same. Actual result: The bullet changes to a random new shape in my test it changed to regular bullets. And on further demoted or prompted it changes to a next shape. Additional findings from follow tests: 1. Newer version of MS office PowerPoint (2016): I have observed that this problem even happens when trying to save in the new format .pptx format and opened with OO impress. 2. Presentation with background colors and Pictures: I have observed that this behavior is consistent with or without having a background on the slide which included animation or pictures.This behavior is also consistent on any slide including Master slide. Compared to Competition: I compare the similar functionality in MS office PowerPoint document, and the bullets/Number formatting is retained when a specific bullet is either promoted or demoted. Other Related Bullet’s related bugs in Bugzilla: • Issue 22657 - Incorrect export to PowerPoint XP bulleted text problem. • Issue 125379 - Bullet format does not copy/paste • Issue 75646 - Impress: bullet position is displayed wrongly after undo • Issue 125611 - AOO does weird things if one tries to use multiple master pages with different bullet styles • Issue 81356 - Impress: pasting across files messes up bullet style • Issue 29061 - MS PowerPoint animated bullets failure Summary: Bug is consistently happening in all my test cases. A file which is saved in .ppt format when opened using OO Impress is retaining the bullets format, but when we try to edit a bullet by either promoting or demoting a bullet point it is losing the bullet style. This does not happen if the file is saved in the OO impress (.odp) format, and opened and edited using OO impress. So, this is a clear case of compatibility issue between MS Office .ppt file with OO .odp format files -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the issue.
