Description Tom 2016-06-28 22:03:24 UTC
Bug 1:
Create new blank impress document. 
Open Styles and Formatting sidebar.
Select a Presentation Style (eg Title).
Select Fill Format Mode.
ISSUE: the cursor does not change, Fill format mode is not active.

Bug 2:
Create a new shape object.
In Styles and Formatting pane, switch to Presentation Styles
ISSUE: New Style From Selection allows user to create a new Presentation Style, which should be impossible and causes issues from Bug 1 when user tries to apply it.

Bug 3:
With Presentation Styles still open, deselect and then select the new shape object.
ISSUE: Although shape object has default formatting, the Styles and Formatting pane doesn't switch to Drawing Object styles to show the default style. (This only occurs if user manually switched to Presentation Styles previously)

Fixes:
It seems that Fill format mode and New style from selection are not intended as an option for Presentation styles, and should be greyed out. The manual says these styles are intended only for use by AutoLayouts, although I'm not sure why that should rule out using Fill Format with them.

Before we test these, it would be good, if you confirmed that these are present in the latest version 5.1.4. Additionally, each bug should go to its own report.

Set to NEEDINFO.
Change back to UNCONFIRMED after you have provided the information.
