Bug ID: 147440
Summary: Custom shape support for placeholder shapes
Product: LibreOffice
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: enhancement
Priority: medium
Component: Impress
Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org
Reporter: tima...@gmail.com
This is a follow-up of bug #132557
It appears that placeholder shapes with service names:
- com.sun.star.presentation.TitleTextShape
- com.sun.star.presentation.DateTimeShape
- com.sun.star.presentation.FooterShape
- com.sun.star.presentation.SlideNumberShape
...
Are unable to have custom shapes in Impress. (i.e. can't be
ellipse, triangle etc.). These presets get specified in OOXML
with <a:prstGeom prst="ellipse"/> inside spPr (shape properties).
If we opt in and import them as custom shapes, it is recognized by the document
model as missing title/subtitle in a slide and some new placeholders appear on
the slide.
It is possible to disable these for footer placeholders, so in the
implementation, we import footers as custom shapes only to slides. At the
initial import correctly displaying the slide.
But if the imported slideshow gets edited and a new slide with footers gets
added, the footers in the new slides would become rectangles. (This is because
we can't import footers into the master slides as custom shapes - doing so
would mean that they would get inserted to each page without considering any
placeholder context)
A better fix would be implementing custom shape support for placeholder shapes.
It would be a large feature work.
