Description Alex Green 2023-08-16 04:55:56 UTC 
Description:
'Text formatting' toolbar disappears once you click outside of text box despite the fact it was ticked in View/Toolbars before - this tick disappears as well.
It's a bug - Impress shouldn't change my settings at it's own will without notice.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. tick 'Text formatting' in View/Toolbars
2. check if toolbar appeared
3. enter and leave any textbox
4. check that both toolbar and your tick disappeared

Actual Results:
both toolbar and tick 'Text formatting' in View/Toolbars disappear

Expected Results:
Impress respects and keeps my settings


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: Yes

Additional Info:
Very annoying.

Dear Alex Green,

To make sure we're focusing on the bugs that affect our users today, LibreOffice QA is asking bug reporters and confirmers to retest open, confirmed bugs which have not been touched for over a year.

There have been thousands of bug fixes and commits since anyone checked on this bug report. During that time, it's possible that the bug has been fixed, or the details of the problem have changed. We'd really appreciate your help in getting confirmation that the bug is still present.

If you have time, please do the following:

Test to see if the bug is still present with the latest version of LibreOffice from https://www.libreoffice.org/download/

If the bug is present, please leave a comment that includes the information from Help - About LibreOffice.
 
If the bug is NOT present, please set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED-WORKSFORME and leave a comment that includes the information from Help - About LibreOffice.

Please DO NOT

Update the version field
Reply via email (please reply directly on the bug tracker)
Set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED - FIXED (this status has a particular meaning that is not 
appropriate in this case)


If you want to do more to help you can test to see if your issue is a REGRESSION. To do so:
1. Download and install oldest version of LibreOffice (usually 3.3 unless your bug pertains to a feature added after 3.3) from https://downloadarchive.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/old/

2. Test your bug
3. Leave a comment with your results.
4a. If the bug was present with 3.3 - set version to 'inherited from OOo';
4b. If the bug was not present in 3.3 - add 'regression' to keyword


Feel free to come ask questions or to say hello in our QA chat: https://web.libera.chat/?settings=#libreoffice-qa

Thank you for helping us make LibreOffice even better for everyone!

Warm Regards,
QA Team
