Created attachment 152724 [details] Impress presentation with 10 slides with different background gradients, stating how each slide was created. Impress, Slide/Properties/Background/Gradient 1) When changing a gradient on the slide, it does not save when document is closed and then re-opened. 2) When changing a gradient and Adding it to the Gradient menu with a new name, the new gradient remains in the menu only as long as the document stays open; it does not appear in the Gradient menu after re-opening the document. Each step is described in the attached Sample presentation.
These gradients used to get saved in the Ubuntu 14.04 version of LibreOffice Impress that was the standard Ubuntu version in 2018 December
Hello, I can't reproduce it in Version: 6.4.0.0.alpha0+ Build ID: 9ee5ad5a0b84bfa652da34694ba4f75668f06087 CPU threads: 4; OS: Linux 4.15; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3; Locale: ca-ES (ca_ES.UTF-8); UI-Language: en-US Calc: threaded Do yo save it to .ODP ? My Steps 1. Open attached document 2. Change gradient background in slide 2 3. Save. 4. Reopen
This is my first ever bug report, so please excuse for any information I didn't provide. Please let me know what information you need. Using Impress only, saving in .odp Using LibreOffice 6.2.4.1 in Ubuntu 18.04 What I am changing is COLOR 2 in the gradient, and it doesn't get saved. If I select one of the other given gradients, it saves fine. Is this enough information?
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.
with 6.3.1.2 the problem is partially solved, since one of the gradients used and the slides with it get saved. Now, 1) The master slide always changes to a different background gradient color #1, the last gradient I changed a slide to. To be clear, I changed the master background to the correct color #1 (green). Then I went through the file and changed another slide to ITS correct background color #1 (y-green). The slides based on master still appeared correct, but when I closed and re-opened the file, the master slide background color #1 was y-green, and all slides based on it were also y-green, including two that I had changed to their own colors. 2) another slide (#16 in the file I'm working with) changes to a different background gradient color #1 (y-green, like slide #1) even though the gradient was saved as color #1=e4ffe4 and color #2= a custom color that got lost. (3) When I save custom gradients, they do not get saved in the Slide/Properties/Background/Gradient menu, even if I delete some of the default gradients. The defaults always show up and not any custom gradients. (I need the custom gradients only for this document.) When I changed the master slide and closed the odp file, and re-opened it, the master slide was again the colors of last slide I changed, NOT what I had set the master slide to. So I corrected the master slide, and then immediately closed the file, and re-opened it, and all the slides based on master, except for two, were now correct. I changed those two, and closed the file, and when I re-opened everything is correct now--since the last file I changed was to the colors I wanted for master. It is possible for me to work with this system since I know that I have to change a slide to the master colors last, but it would take a long time for someone else to figure this out. Thanks, and I'm very happy to keep working with you to help in any way I can!
The problem persists. I'm working with another .odp file, in which I have no master background gradient set at all. The slides have different background gradients, and every time I close and open the file, some of the slides just change to the last gradient I changed a slide to. In case it's relevant, I have between 60 and 140 slides per presentation file. I'm using 6.3.1.2, Ubuntu.
Forgot to mention that in this new file, I'm changing the x and y values, and they're not getting saved either. Also changing color 1 and or color 2 and they're not getting saved. Each time I open the file, I need to go through each slide and change the ones that did't get saved. They're usually the same ones each time.
Something has been fixed in 6.2.4.1 because the background gradients are now saving on the slides. Thank you!!
