Description Nicole Cook 2018-07-11 19:05:15 UTC
Description:
I am updating a .pptx file in Libra Office Impress. The update requires me to go back and forth between the Normal tab and the Notes tab, changing as I go.
Frequently when I move to the next slide using the slides tab a copy of the last slide in the view window of the slide tab is created. From that point on when I try to change the notes tab portions of the screen recall a previous image. If I do not shut the app down and restart it will crash.

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Start with hefty .pptx file 100+ slides with a few graphics
2.Go to a slide 30 or so in, start changing fonts first in Normal tab
3.Switch to notes tab, change fonts - make them larger
Use slide window to go to next slide - repeat until you see bug


Actual Results:
The notes tab is un-editable the display is out of sync with the application, You need to click on something and try to change it to see this problem

Expected Results:
Normal operation, allow me to change the font


Reproducible: Sometimes


User Profile Reset: No



Additional Info:
I have a file I can send you that will reliably recreate the issue

Thank you for reporting the bug.
it seems you're using an old version of LibreOffice.
Could you please try to reproduce it with the latest version of LibreOffice
from https://www.libreoffice.org/download/libreoffice-fresh/ ?
I have set the bug's status to 'NEEDINFO'. Please change it back to
'UNCONFIRMED' if the bug is still present in the latest version.
