Description Stephan van den Akker 2013-08-09 14:23:52 UTC
Created attachment 83892 [details]
Sample document with a cropped bitmap grouped with a line.

Attaching a sample document created in MSO 97:

Created by:
- grouping a cropped bitmap and a line in Powerpoint
- copying to Word
- saving to .doc

The bitmap in this sample file is imported by LO without cropping, but scaled. The cropped part of the bitmap is red with the text "Invisible square". It should not be visible. Any vector element will cause this, not just lines.

If the cropped bitmap and the line are ungrouped in Word prior to saving, than the cropped bitmap is imported correctly by newer versions of LO. (Only the green part of the bitmap is visible). 

Tested on Windows XP (32-bit):

OpenOffice.org 3.3.0
OOO330m20 (Build:9567)


Tested on openSuSE 11.4 64-bit with: 

LO Version 4.0:build-303 (Build ID: 400m0(Build:303))

LO Version: 4.2.0.0.alpha0+
Build ID: 784cfa382be438240dfc936b7551c5012aada9ae

Version: 4.2.0.0.alpha0+
Build ID: 8716aa29fe4b4309fec71ef6a21ccbdd1f3b7f9e

tested with LibO 3.3.3, 4.0.4 and 4.1.0 under Win7 64bit.
I see the "invisible" red square in your test document.

so the same .doc file opened in Word should show only the green square, right?
Comment 2 Stephan van den Akker 2013-08-23 18:18:54 UTC
Correct: In Word only the green square is visible.
Comment 3 tommy27 2013-08-24 07:30:45 UTC
unfortunately I have no MS Word to confirm that.
is there any other user who can confirm difference between Word and Writer?

Cor Nouws and Miklos Vajna already confirmed this bug in the discussion on bug 57378.
Comment 7 tommy27 2013-08-24 11:22:17 UTC
@Stephan

ok. changing status to NEW.
so basically Bug 67951 and Bug 57378 are the same issue respectively with .doc and .docx formats.
Comment 8 Stephan van den Akker 2013-08-24 19:32:19 UTC
Well, AFAICS (not deeply versed in the LO code) there are two different fail mechanisms. 

Bug 57378 seems to be fixed in the latest LO versions. Probably some parameters from a docx file not being parsed correctly during import.

This bug however, is not fixed.

I observed that when a picture (bitmap) is part of a drawing that also contains vector elements, the bitmap part is no longer stored as a Writer picture. E.g. the context menu of the bitmap part doesn't have the "Picture" item associated with it. Writer pictures have. Therefore the cropping functionality in Writer for pictures is not available for these elements.

Not sure if docx documents will have the same problem.
