Description Laurent Balland 2024-04-17 17:06:19 UTC
Description:
Indonesian LO Community introduced some bundled templates (Candy, Freshes, Grey Elegant, Growing Liberty, Yellow Idea). Templates are very nice, but they use a lot of Lorem Ipsum texts. These texts should be replaced by placeholders for the following benefits:
- placeholders are easier to fill than replacing Lorem Ipsum text
- placeholders names are automatically translated

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a new presentation
2. Select one of the templates (Candy, Freshes, Grey Elegant, Growing Liberty, Yellow Idea)
3. OK

Actual Results:
Each slide is uinge Lorem Ipsum as title and texts

Expected Results:
Like other templates, placeholders should be use for title and text


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No

Additional Info:
Grey Elegant template is already modified by https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/c/core/+/161289

Can you explain HOW you created placeholder textboxes? Can you do that in the UI or do you need to tweak the XML files?

> Can you explain HOW you created placeholder textboxes?
Never mind. I bet you just deleted the textboxes, and then - with the slide selected - you picked a different layout and the layout defined all the title and text boxes that you wanted.

I tweak the XML files: simply get an empty presentation with the placeholders you need, save it in flat XML, and copy the XML code.
