Description Gabor Kelemen (allotropia) 2025-08-26 07:34:25 UTC
Created attachment 202512 [details]
Example file from Impress

The attached file has a single placeholder with no custom text.

Upon starting the presentation this placeholder is visible, but it should not.

1. Open attached file
2. Press F5 to start the presentation
-> Click to add Title text is visible and the colorful background of the placeholder shape (which is currently b/w for me in master, but likely just because of some unrelated issue)

This should be visible only if there is custom text.

This should be entirely empty.

To clarify, the colorful background of the shape and border line should be visible, just the placeholder text not.
