Description TrevorTManson 2023-04-26 15:56:52 UTC
Description:
The use of "Section Names" by PowerPoint is useful when generating a template, or wanting to have an invisible placeholder, as Sections are not shown in a Presentation, but are useful when creating a set of slides.
The information is retained in one of the xml files (Presentation.xml I think) so is readily available.
Many thanks,

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Cannot see Sections detailed in any view - c.f. PowerPoint where the slides (as per Impress's "Slide" thumbnails and appear as a horizontal line with the section name where introduced, and any subsequent slide is within that section until the next section appears.
2.
3.

Actual Results:
No way to view sections as far as I can find - as they don't seem to exist in Impress

Expected Results:
Not sure this box is relevant for an enhancement, but:-
Cannot see Sections detailed in any view - c.f. PowerPoint where the slides (as per Impress's "Slide" thumbnails and appear as a horizontal line with the section name where introduced, and any subsequent slide is within that section until the next section appears.
