2. Close it and apply it to paragraphs. Everything works fine.
3. Now reopen the edit paragraph formatiing window again for Custom Format described above.

This feature works fine on the Still Version 5.2.6. This bug has come up after the introduction of the upgraded Format Properties Window.

I check this in the 5.4 released for bug hunting, and it still exists. This has become a hurdle and I had to shift back to the still version.

Checked on /daily/master/Win-x86_64@42/2017-06-10_01.17.34
Bug still unresolved. Behaviour changed a little bit though.

Steps to repeat new behaviour

1. Open new file.

2. Create new Paragraph format and give it a name.

3. Change the area fill setting to as shown in Image 1. (Load an external image not select a default one - This step is necessary to simulate a second buggy bahaviour) * Image_1: Paragraph Format Settings - Original Intended

4. Apply and Save settings close the window.

5. Reopen paragraph setting window by Right click > Modify

*The Style, Size and Position what was previously set is now changed to something different. This can be seen in image 2

*Image_2: Paragraph Style_Test_Settings_Window_Closed_and_Reopened

--> This is the first minor bug

6. For the second minor bug. > Save file > Close File and Reopen it. 
7. Reopen paragraph setting window by Right click > Modify

8. In addition to the first minor bug the External loaded image is now not displayed in the list.

Comment 13 Nithin 2017-06-12 09:31:47 UTC
The second bug which occurs when file is closed and reopened also exists in the Gradient and Hatching Tab as well. Shall i post the details here or shall I open a new bug for that? In both cases data is not lost and only the data from the file is not populated back to the window properly.
Comment 14 Nithin 2017-06-12 09:59:01 UTC
All the above Problems can be found in the Pattern tab as well.

That is bug #103916. It works if you save those presets in Format > Area tab, only there & nowhere else. 

It's challenging to fix as one needs to tunnel certain data through 20 layers of abstraction, but hey, that's improved UX for you!

Comment 18 Rainer Bielefeld Retired 2017-12-26 07:01:28 UTC
There are various issues in the page background area, and it is necessary to distinguish strictly. There might be relations between those issues, but they seem to start with different versions and also some of  them seem to have become fixed in between with different Target Milestones.

this one mixes some different problems. The original problem is concerning the effect that Format Page Dialog loses connection to imported picture, which is already reproducible with Version: 5.2.0.4 (x64)
Build-ID: 066b007f5ebcc236395c7d282ba488bca6720265
CPU-Threads: 4; BS-Version: Windows 6.1; UI-Render: Standard; 
Gebietsschema: de-DE (de_DE).

But for example various screenshots show the problem that particular size and scaling settings will not be shown correctly after reopening Format Page Dialog from page contents view, and this is still ok with  5.2.0.4 (x64). So I think we should use this one as collection of materials for creation of new reports precisely describing a particular effect with clearly described appearance (and may be vanishing). Finding relations between those issues would be a second step.

This one is concerning "on board" and also imported (bitmap) pictures as page background.

STR:
11. Open Attachment 134433 [details]
12. Menu ‘format → Page → Background → Picture
   Expected: Shows information related to actual imported background picture 
             (like OOo does and also LibO 5.0.4.2)
   Actual: connection to actual imported picture lost, shows arbitrary (default)
        values for size, position and so on: "Tiled", "176%"

Step 4 of original report demonstrates the problem, but is not necessary to provoke the issue, also reporter's screenshots of settings show this

a1) Already reproducible with Version 5.4.3  
a2) Was still ok with Version: 5.2.0.4 (x64)
    Build-ID: 066b007f5ebcc236395c7d282ba488bca6720265
    CPU-Threads: 4; BS-Version: Windows 6.1; UI-Render: Standard; 
    Gebietsschema: de-DE (de_DE)
    and also Version: 5.0.4.2,    
    Build-ID: 2b9802c1994aa0b7dc6079e128979269cf95bc78
    Gebietsschema: de-DE (de_DE), German language UI, normal User Profile

Comment 24 Timur 2021-05-07 07:46:48 UTC
This bug for Format -> Paragraph -> Area -> Bitmap is the same as bug 125969 for Format -> Page Style -> Area -> Bitmap.
So far I'll just connect via See Also.

I confirm that the original issue with settings (style, size, position, etc.) going back to defaults is reproduced in 6.0.0.3 but resolved in 6.1.0.3

Bibisected the fix to:

commit b85691995e7b1a1aadf714c34e7fe6b9cd3206d8

Pass full item set to bitmap tabpages

Thanks Katarina! It was possibly the same issue as bug 105194.

To keep things clear, let's mark this one as fixed, and move the duplicate that's not quite the same issue: bug 108905 -> bug 125969.
