First, thanks to all the developers LibreOffice for a great product! I have a question to the developers. Is it possible to make the next version of Impress opportunity to resize (not resolution!) Windows show presentation? Or, please, at least not tie it programmatically to 0,0 first or second monitor to be able to third-party tools to do it. I would like just to the developers added an option to edit the size and position of the window, or removed the forced return of coordinates in 0.0. Window display presentation PoverPoint allows you to change its position and size. I would like very much to Impress also had the opportunity! Thanks! Detailed information: http://ask.libreoffice.org/en/question/46656/resizing-the-window-presentations/
Dear Reporter, it seems this request was filled long time ago. Could you please try to reproduce it with the latest version of LibreOffice from https://www.libreoffice.org/download/libreoffice-fresh/ ? I have set the bug's status to 'NEEDINFO'. Please change it back to 'UNCONFIRMED' if the bug is still present in the latest version.
Specially I downloaded the latest version 5.3. All have the same problem. presentation window can be reduced, but as soon as I slip him the x or y, Impress him forcibly back to the point 0.0 and expands on the full screen. This is a very bad reaction. In PowerPoint, you can do whatever you like. Correct it is at last. Well this is a trifle - to remove the rigid and useless to bind to 0.0.
Moving back to UNCONFIRMED. It needs to be confirmed by a third person
Do you have a link that describes how PowerPoint does this?
I have no such links. But if you need I can create a program that demonstrates that PowerPoint allows you to resize the demo window and its location, and Impress blocks this possibility and immediately resets the coordinate change to 0.0. However, the developers Impress, you know exactly about this reaction! So it is not necessary to explain the behavior of Impress to them. Thank you for not forgetting my request, although for a very long time she was not paying attention.
How do you get the presentation in a window instead of full screen? Is it by changing the choice in menu Slide Show > Slide Show Settings ? When changing from "Full screen" to "In a window" I can change the size and move the window in which the presentation is shown. Set status to NEEDINFO, please set it back to UNCONFIRMED once requested informations are provided. Best regards. JBF
I wrote about this more than once. Here and there: http://ask.libreoffice.org/en/question/46656/resizing-the-window-presentations/ This is done by third-party programs that can change the size and position of the window of any other program. One of these programs I created myself, because I need to specifically reduce the size and coordinates of the presentation window. Because In fullscreen mode and in the 0,0 coordinate it does not suit me. But PowerPoint allows me to do this with its window and Impress does not give. Therefore, I wrote that any user can not verify this! This requires a third-party program. But the developers of LibreOfficeImpress know about this strange function very well! But unfortunately, apparently, they have never looked in here yet!
You do not clearly answer my question: if you set the presentation for a slideshow in a window instead of full screen, is your third-party program able to move and resize the slideshow window? If that does not work, why are you sure that the problem is on LibreOffice side? Set status to NEEDINFO, please set it back to UNCONFIRMED once requested informations are provided. Best regards. JBF
I already wrote that Impress does not allow you to tear the window out of the 0,0 coordinate at all. Once this is done, it immediately resets it to 0.0 and even returns the window to full-screen mode. I can write for you specifically the program that demonstrates this.
(In reply to Andrey from comment #9) > [...] > I can write for you specifically the program that demonstrates this. Yes, please.
Already wrote. Where do you download it?

Created attachment 135721 [details] The program demonstrates that Impress resets the coordinates of the presentation window permanently to 0.0. Before running my program, run any presentation in Impress (F5)

Can't use it on Linux. Do you have something portable and buildable on other plateforms? Best regards. JBF
Unfortunately under Linux I do not write programs yet. Try it maybe through Wine run.
But this is not so important, because only developers LibreOffice know this problem / defect and only they can fix it. Thank you personally for trying to help!

Well, it's already clear! ))) Who else knows the program than its developer ?! I myself will be a developer and know my programs well. They know exactly about this because This is not an unexpected error, but a special function that returns a window of 0.0.
(In reply to Andrey from comment #19) > Well, it's already clear! ))) Who else knows the program than its developer > ?! I myself will be a developer and know my programs well. Let me explain something. The LibreOffice codebase is like a Lost World with mystical sights and creatures. A person will know it, if they wander into this world and study it. If we were to guess, the developer who created the codepaths you are referring to is no longer working on LibreOffice.
Aaa that is, you even know that there is no this developer. Got it. But I think the code is available for editing by the rest of the developers. And they could fix it a little. This of course is not cretitical, but I would like that Impress could be used in my tasks. Moreover, it is a free and excellent alternative to PP.
Please could you answer my questions in comment #8: - the first one: answer by Yes or No Note that if you set the slide show to play in a window, this window is the editor window and may not have (0,0) as coordinates. - the second one: please explain. Best regards. JBF
And how do I start the presentation in the window? Or do you mean watch it in the editor? But this option is not suitable since this window is not for viewing but for editing with different extra buttons.
I already guessed how to set up the presentation to run in the editor window! Thank you for such a hint. But this option is not suitable, as I wrote, due to the fact that a lot of excess (the title of the window, menu, buttons, status bar, etc.). Therefore, it is necessary to manage a separate window of the presentation which has nothing superfluous (even frames) except for the slides themselves.
Hello, I am using HP Laptop. and I will tell how to Change the size and position of the window display presentation. In Windows 10, search for and open Change display settings. You can also right-click the desktop and open Display settings. To change the orientation between Landscape and Portrait or to flip the orientation, select an option from the drop-down menu, then click Keep Changes or Revert. Figure : Changing the orientation of the display To change the size of text and windows, select the size you want from the drop-down menu. Changes take effect immediately. Figure : Changing the size of text, apps, and other items To adjust the brightness, click and drag the slider bar. Changes take effect immediately. Figure : Adjusting the slider bar for brightness To reduce the amount of blue light coming from the display, turn on Night light. To schedule the night light and change the hue, click Night light settings. Figure : Turning on Night light To change the screen resolution, select a resolution from the drop-down menu, then click Keep Changes or Revert. NOTE: We recommend in most circumstances to use the native resolution of the monitor, which is marked as Recommended. If you have more than one monitor, select the monitor that you want to adjust, then repeat these steps to change the resolution. A confirmation window opens.
(In reply to Ed Macauley from comment #25) Ed Macauley, thanks for all your advice! This is all clear. And not about that. But it's not about that at all. Speech only about the fact that PowerPoint allows you to change the size and position of the window output of the presentation, but LibreOffice Impress - does not give - it automatically knocks them to 0.0 when trying to change its position. That is the problem and she does not see that she decided to developers.

I am recently getting windows updates error on my laptop. I also checked https://errorcode0x.com/windows-update-error-80070103/ for the solution but just got the reason but did not get any valid solution to solve this. Anyone else is facing such kind of error in their system? Kindly let me know.
This enhancement has been in UNCONFIRMED status for more than 3 years. I think it's reasonable to close it as RESOLVED WONTFIX as there's no interest from the community to implement it.
