Description Petr Mladek 2011-03-22 11:21:03 UTC
I have just tested todays build of libreoffice git master. I tried to create simple presentation and watch it in fullscreen. It did not show some text in the fullscreen mode.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Start blank presentation in impress
2. Enter "Title bla" into the title box
3. Enter "Text bla" into the text box
4. start presentation [F5]

Result: It shows just "Title bla"

Expected result: It should show both "Title bla" and "Text bla"


Observation: It helps to do one of the following operations:

    + save the document
    + add another slide
    + use itemized list for the text

=> I think that there is a missing initialization somewhere

Thorsten, could you please have a look at it?

It would be nice to fix this for the LO-3.4 release. I have found it after playing 5 minutes with the new build ;-)
Comment 2 Thorsten Behrens (allotropia) 2011-03-24 07:39:33 UTC
weird. my build does not show that behaviour. going to look into the latest opensuse one - Petr, could you check whether x86_64 behaves similarly for you?
Comment 3 Thorsten Behrens (allotropia) 2011-03-25 09:33:20 UTC
Petr confirms bug again, notes his build is done with *internal* cairo.
Comment 4 Caolán McNamara 2011-03-25 09:37:48 UTC
I don't see it with "system" cairo, let me try internal. I did do some tweaking to the vcl cairo text rendering which might be a trigger somehow for this
Comment 5 Caolán McNamara 2011-03-25 10:02:59 UTC
a quick semi-rebuild with internal cairo on x86_64 and I still don't see it, hmm
Comment 6 Petr Mladek 2011-03-28 03:50:02 UTC
Hmm, I see it also with our official LO-3.3.2.2 build for SLED11-SP1-x86_64. It uses the system cairo. So, it might be quite old bug and probably not that important.
Comment 7 tester8 2011-06-04 11:20:44 UTC
Reproduced with Ubuntu 10.04.2 x86
LO 3.4.0
libcairo2 1.8.10-2ubuntu1

Bug does not appear if click outside text field before start presentation.
Comment 8 Caolán McNamara 2011-11-10 08:59:18 UTC
Is this still a problem ?

This is pressing F5, while editing a drawing text box and not getting the content of the active drawing text box. There's a common problem with the idiom of an editengine and its "currently being edited adds a magic outliner which contains the editing contents while the editengine contains the pre-edited content"
Comment 9 Petr Mladek 2011-11-11 07:11:39 UTC
I do not see it in a recent master build => FIXED
