Description Katarina Behrens (Inactive) 2015-04-15 14:37:33 UTC
I tried to use the new page title field feature (bug 47302) but it didn't quite work as expected ... here's what I've done:

1. New Impress document
2. Menu -> Insert -> Fields -> Page Title ... a field with 'Slide1' content appears
3. Left-most pane w/ slides, right-click 1st slide, select Rename Slide
4. A dialog pops up. Enter a new slide name (e.g. '42'), confirm w/ OK

I'd expect the page title field (page title? really? didn't I just change the slide name?) to change now, so that it contains the updated name (42) but it ain't the case. 
One has to click inside the field and only then the content actually changes to reflect the new slide name.

It's Menu -> Insert -> Fields -> Slide Title now.
Repro 6.5+.
(Used menu to rename, reported right-click bug.)

Still reproducible. Seems to be purely a visual bug. After renaming the slide, it retains the previous slide's title. Press F5 (start slideshow) and it will be updated (just like how on click it updates). Changing title (without "click updating") and then saving the file also shows the correct title on reopen.
