Background bitmap

Libre Office Writer 5.3.4.2. Win 10.
Format/Page/Area/Bitmap/import
Adding a bitmap imported from my own files works fine. But when I return to the file to change the Bitmap Style - eg to change the size of the background I am faced with the default LO bitmap (a blue sky bitmap) and I have to go through the whole import process again.
The same thing happens when I try to adjust Transparency.

Confirming with:
Version: 6.0.0.0.alpha0+

Moving to NEW as per comment 1

@Bubli, one for you ?
Comment 4 Katarina Behrens (Inactive) 2017-07-11 14:06:42 UTC
Is this any different than bug#107087 ?
Comment 5 denis campbell 2017-07-11 15:01:26 UTC
It is different in that it does not involve format - paragraph at all.
Comment 6 Telesto 2017-07-11 15:42:01 UTC
It's in essence same problem: the imported image is missing in the Area -> Bitmap dialog after closing Writer.

Without bug 107087 comment 8 no change can be made to the background without re-importing the file after re-opening. I would suggest to backport bug 107087 comment 8 to 5.4 and 5.3 branch and mark this one as a dupe of bug 107087
Comment 7 denis campbell 2017-07-11 15:53:18 UTC
I may not have made myself clear. The problem arises even without closing writer.
It arises when you insert a bitmap and then go to Transparency - at which point the bitmap disappears.
It does not depend on format paragraph or closing writer, but it may as you say be caused by the same fundamental issue.

Sorry, for the confusion. You're right. It isn't working for LibO5.3.4.2, but it does work in the daily builds (Master).

Yes, everything I tested in this area now works fine with

Anything left to do here? Backports anyone?

Lets dupe this one. It's similar to bug 107087 comment 12

Minus the bugfix creep in bug 107087, which is a duplicate of yet a different bug I can't find atm ;-) QA is hard, let's go shopping

But fear not, there's some series of patches by me in gerrit now that fixes many of those bitmap fill issues
Comment 13 Stéphane Guillou (stragu) 2023-10-03 14:22:22 UTC
A more appropriate duplicate, now that the original is marked as fixed.
