Created attachment 94622 [details] example ODP for reproducing bug Using example provided, go to slide 14. Edit the bullet starting with 9,000 (ie, add some text). Save the file, close, reopen. The edits have been completely lost!!! HELP!!!
Hi, I can not reproduce with Version: 4.2.1.1 Build ID: d7dbbd7842e6a58b0f521599204e827654e1fb8b on Ubuntu 13.10. Please could you try with the 4.2.1.1 version and see if it's always the same? Lowering the importance until Dave's feedback, it's not a MAB. Thanks - Sophie
Please, I would like to help and have already spent a bunch of time narrowing down an easily reproducible example. But I have already lost a bunch of time with lost edits, and I can't load an experimental version just before I must make this presentation! Please, can you try to reproduce with the release version I am using? Thanks!
Dave, if the bug is corrected with version 4.2.1.1, then it's not needed to reproduce it with 4.2.0. Because I don't use the same operating system as yours, I can't say if it appears on Windows or not with this new version. So, we will wait for another QA member to test under Windows. Thanks for your report! Sophie
I can reproduce this on: - Windows7, with LO 4.1.5, - pc Debian x86-64 with master sources updated yesterday and 4.2 sources updated yesterday too. I noticed nothing special on console.
Just for the record, I went to slide 14, first bullet (the one which begins with 9,000) and replaced this: 9,000+ ft plus climb by this: 9,000+ ft test plus climb No error message during saving but when reopen , "test" doesn't appear.
Dave: I made some other tests and found that when using fodt, editing/saving/reopen was ok. Of course, it would be just a workaround.
I'm glad you folks can reproduce the problem. I lost a LOT of work yesterday with this bug (plus other crashing I don't know how to reproduce). PLEASE consider this a very serous bug! Thanks, Best Regards, Dave
Dave: I wonder if there could be something corrupted in your file. Do you reproduce this with a brand new file without copying from your original file? (Just try with 1 slide and a quick bulleted list)
http://odfvalidator.cyclone3.org/ indicates some errors but I don't know if they could be false positives. There's also http://odf-validator.rhcloud.com/ but the service is unavailable for the moment. Joren: would you have some time (it's very quick and straightforward) to give a try to this bug? The weird thing is Sophie doesn't reproduce this whereas I can reproduce this.

(Just try with 1 slide and a quick bulleted list) I am SURE there is something corrupted in the file. Like every other user out there, I'm creating presentations using a mix of older presentation decks. IIRC this presentation was created originally with an earlier version of Libre Office (maybe Open Office prior the fork), but it may have been PowerPoint. Hope that helps, Best Regards, Dave
