The 2 slide test case

- Open the attached presentation
- you can see on the second slide some text
-try to edit the text or move it around

result: the text on slide 2 cannot be accessed. Moreover, when starting the presentation, the text is also not displayed

- now delete the first slide

result: now you can access the text that was not accessible before.

The presentation file is an excerpt form a PowerPoint file created with Office XP in 2003. I attached the original PowerPoint too as reference.

On the second file it's possible to edit the main text from fourth slide, editable with outline view, and it's editable Title¡s text and the text on the arrow of the first slide. 

Wit the first file I can edit the text.

With the first file (the one that has only 2 slides) I cannot edit the text on the second slide and this is the bug I reported here.

To be certain the reported issue is not
related to corruption in the user profile, could you please reset your
Libreoffice profile ( https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/UserProfile ) and
re-test?

I have set the bug's status to 'NEEDINFO'. Please change it back to
'UNCONFIRMED' if the issue is still present
Comment 5 muso 2018-09-04 18:03:22 UTC
> could you please reset your Libreoffice profile

Done but the problem persists with the file I uploaded. To assure that there is no server issue, I downloaded the file I uploaded and opened it with LO in safe mode where I reset all user preferences, extensions and settings.

> I can't reproduce it in Version: 6.2.0.0.alpha0+

Please test with the latest version that is available for normal users. It doesn't help use normal users if a bug might be fixed in a version that will be released in a few months. For us it is important that you can reproduce the bug and if it is fixed in 6.2alpha but not fixed in 6.1.1 then I would be happy if could kindly backport the fix to the 6.1 series.
Comment 6 Buovjaga 2018-09-24 18:30:09 UTC
muso: like Miguel said, it works fine in 6.1.1. I confirm I can edit the text in slide 2 of attachment 144582 [details]

Please copy and paste here the contents of your Help - About. This allows us to know more about your system.

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

So, it was fine until https://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core/commit/?id=1da3a3cb74a415a76fa547ef0c8f61780e260e7f, when the slides became blank. Then the blank problem got fixed https://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core/commit/?id=f0485ba2d90aae0312f5775588f22789016165d2 and this issue became reproducible...
