ODS with custom animations

Problem description:
Some Impress custom animations don't work

Steps to reproduce:
1. Load an image or select an object in a slide
2. Add a custom animation like "Lighten" or "Contrasting Color"
3. Start the slideshow or watch the automatic preview: nothing happens, animations are lost

Current behaviour:
Some (not all) custom animations don't work, they are not visible in the slideshow neither in the preview.
Surely "Lighten" and "Contrasting Color" don't work, probably some other custom animations too.

Expected behaviour:
All custom animations working.             

I confirm this bug both on Win7 SP1 and Ubuntu 13.04
Operating System: All
Version: 4.1.3.2 rc
Comment 1 Rob Snelders 2013-11-03 13:00:33 UTC
It doesn't work with photo's here either.

But when I add a shape it works.

Tested with 4.1.2.3 on Ubuntu 13.04 x86_64

Had been raised also in bug 120093.

See attachment 192827 [details] for a showcase of numerous Emphasis animations.

Lighten, Darken, Contrasting Color, Desaturate, Color Blend... all sound like they should work on a raster image, but they currently only affect:
- the text attached to the picture (if any)
- its Line property (if set)
- its Area fill (if set and the image has some transparency).

In my opinion, this is an enhancement request rather than a bug.

Dear Teo91,

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
