Hi,

LibreOffice Impress shows unexpected behavior when creating an animation as a group object from a series of images. A border is added and the border and background are set to bluish colors.

This behavior is not only unexpected (although shown in the preview), but also completely different from the behavior observed when creating the anitmation as a bitmap object. As a bitmap object, transparency is preserved and no border is added. However, this is not always a feasible solution as the quality is severely impeded.


Steps to reproduce (please be aware that I am using LO in German and thus I cannot reliably give all the names of every button to press)
1) Insert at least two images with trasparency
2) Open the animation dialog (see https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/17406199/bugtmp/Bug17_1.png )
3) Select the images and click the button to add all images individually
4) Create it as a group object. You will see that a background and a border has been added
5) Create it as a bitmap object. You will see that transparency of the background is preserved and no border is added


Current behavior:
a) A background color and a border is added
b) Bitmap and group object animations look and behave differently.
The current behavior is shown in https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/17406199/bugtmp/Bug17_2.png
And odp showing the problem can be found at
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/17406199/bugtmp/Bug17.odp


Expected behavior:
a) Do not add background color and border (the user can do this manually if desired). OR: Add color field to choose if and what background/border color should be added.
b) Bitmap and group object animations should look similar.


Again, thanks a lot for all your efforts.

Using your provided odp, I copied the "source svg" shapes to another slide for testing.
I reproduced the problems.

For testers: Insert - Media - Animated image.

Tested it and apparent it does not occur in LO 5.1.5.2 (Windows 10). Great!
