Created attachment 163730 [details] Example file from Word with glow effect + transparent shapes Attached file is the Word 2010 cover page template “Exposition”. It has some BTLR textboxes with both area fill+transparency and glow effect + transparency. When opened in Writer the shapes have the area fill transparency applied instead of the glow effects transparency. Steps to reproduce: 1. Open attached file Actual results: The three vertical rectangles are mostly transparent. Expected results: The three vertical rectangles should be mostly opaque. LibreOffice details: Version: 7.1.0.0.alpha0+ (x64) Build ID: <buildversion> CPU threads: 4; OS: Windows 6.3 Build 9600; UI render: default; VCL: win Locale: en-US (hu_HU); UI: en-US Calc: CL Also happens in older versions, since support for glow effect is pretty new.

(In reply to NISZ LibreOffice Team from comment #0) > Also happens in older versions, since support for glow effect is pretty new. No, what happens in older versions is simply not drawing the glow below the object. This seems to be wrong order of application of effects: the fill with the transparency seems to be applied after the glow had been applied to the box without the fill. So glow is only drawn for then-nontransparent text, not for partially transparent area.
