not reproducible with LO 3.6.4.3. (Win7 Home, 64bit)

but the blue colour seemed to be a little bit brighter and the blue area seemed also to be a little bit larger than in PowerPoint 2007

Comment 3 Dave Yost 2013-04-18 07:53:47 UTC
There is something very strange here. The first attachment I uploaded works OK, but the one I'm uploading now fails.

We need to be able to routinely go back and forth between Libre Office and Powerpoint.

The first version of the file did not reproduce the bug, but the second version did for me with LibreOffice 3.5.4.2, Build ID 350m1, which I'm running on a 32-bit version of Ubuntu 12.04 LTS.
Comment 5 A (Andy) 2013-05-01 13:36:58 UTC
as per Dave' and Joshua' comments: With the second attachment this issue is reproducible with LO 4.0.2.2. (Win7 Home, 64bit), but not with the first one.
If you open the second attachment with LO then there is no gradient background color as in MSO 2007.

I close this bug report as RESOLVED WORKFORME because it is no longer reproducible.
Tested again in Windows 7 Enterprise with:
   - Libreoffice 4.1.5.3 Build ID: 1c1366bba2ba2b554cd2ca4d87c06da81c05d24
   - Libreoffice 4.2.2.1 Build ID: 3be8cda0bddd8e430d8cda1ebfd581265cca5a0f
   - Libreoffice 4.3.0.0.alpha0 Build ID: aeab0183e86fe011d32058864c02b2de4da32dc9

Feel free to open this bug report again if you find that the bug is still reproducible under some special circumstances, etc.
