Description Katarina Behrens (Inactive) 2016-09-14 14:13:06 UTC
And another bug brought to you by LibO Con participants ;-)

* New or existing presentation, new slide
* Insert multi-line text, for example 'Line 1 \n Line 2 \n Line 3'
* Select the bounding box of the text - it is important to select the whole box and not just mark the lines with mouse/keyboard, otherwise you won't see the bug

* Go to sidebar > Custom animation deck
* Click '+' icon to add animation

A new entry appears in the list of animations ( Entrance: Appear )

Expected: You can edit the new entry

Actual: You can't, because the Category combobox is inactive. You have to unpack the tree (click a small + or arrow-like icon on the left-most edge of the entry) and then it is possible to select the entries for individual lines and edit them, but you can't edit them as a group

This was previously (when custom animation editing was in a modal dialog) always possible. Now in sidebar, it ain't anymore.

The bug is already there within version 6.1.

It's not really helpful, if QA push mass messages to the submitter of a bug. It will not make the submitting of bugs more fun. Could lead to a situation where users will not send messages about feature that doesn't work as expected and silently change their office (and you loose them from user base and supporters).

On the contrary, it is very helpful and has been proven to be so. According to statistics based on actively re-testing, it was consistently found that ~25% of reports untouched for a year could be closed as WORKSFORME.
