Created attachment 69674 [details] A writer file and Impress file used in test described above under steps to reproduce. Note: Default font for Writer is Arial 10,5 Problem description: I worked forth and back in an Impress and Writer file and wanted to copy a bullet list from Impress into Writer Upon pasting the clipboard content the pasted content was not visible but the formatting of the entire Writer file was destroyed ctrl+z did not bring back the original formatting in writer Steps to reproduce: 1 – Open Writer and type a few words in a new file 2 – Open Impress and create a bullet list 3 – Select bullet list and ctrl+C 4 – Switch to Writer and ctrl+V Current behavior: copy & paste a bullet list from Impress into Writer destroys the Writer format irreparable Expected behavior: copy & paste a bullet list from Impress into Writer should be displayed in Writer as a bullet list matching the bullets of Impress or the Default for Writer. In minimum it should be pasted as unformatted text Platform (if different from the browser): XP/SP3 Browser: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 5.1; rv:16.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/16.0
Could not reproduce the destruction of the Writer document formatting with LO 3.7.0.0.alpha0+ (Build ID: 52faa1). LO copies the bulleted test lines from slide 2 into the ODT, converting the Impress style "Outline 1" to "Default~LT~Gliederung 1", omitting the bullet numbering however. Probably already fixed?
Could someone make the test with the latest 3.6 release? The 3.7 release is still farway for most users? In my 3.5.7 the bug is consistent, I just produced it again.
I really would appreciate a test of version 3.6? The test on 3.7 was done with limitations, thus not necessarily fully reliable. This bug is reducing productivity tremendously because it also destroys the saved version. I save frequently while working: ctrl+s and make every day a new copy of the file. Because instead of ctrl+b I hit crtl+v (English keyboard layout) I lost only today at least 1/2 day of work I am sure this will happen to other people as well. I changed importance to highest and blocker.
Sorry to hear about the dataloss. This seems to be fixed in 3.6.2 and 4.0 master (e22be4 built today) There are no more 3.5 builds so closing this. Please feel free to reopen if you still get the problem in 3.6 or 4.0.
