Description Cor Nouws 2015-10-06 15:31:46 UTC
Hmm, no issue for this yet ??

View > Master "Slide master"

Side bar ... "Master pages"

Format > Slide design ... Exchange "background page" 
   Effectively replaces master slide of all slides with the same slide master
   as the selected one

Format > Slide design ... Delete unused "backgrounds"

mostly fixed in Version: 6.3.0.0.alpha0+
Build ID: 65f6a4088ad5d51a3225905aa6e2fa175f3eab49

in a recent UX-meeting there was e decision on the dialog, but what issue..
Ah bug #122448

Most is fixed - the use of "background page" and "backgrounds" in the dialog (and Help) is still confusing.
And Help file:///home/cono/libreoffice/master63_20190203/libreofficedev6.3/help/en-US/text/simpress/guide/masterpage.html?DbPAR=IMPRESS#bm_id3152596 is fixed
but file:///home/cono/libreoffice/master63_20190203/libreofficedev6.3/help/en-US/text/simpress/01/05120000.html?System=UNIX&DbPAR=IMPRESS&HID=modules/simpress/ui/slidedesigndialog/help#bm_@@nowidget@@ not

Comment 10 Cor Nouws 2022-02-27 21:00:41 UTC
Still partially inconsistent. Now the menu
  Slide > Change Slide Master
opens the dialog with the wrong strings (see previous comments)

Seen in: Version: 7.4.0.0.alpha0+ / LibreOffice Community

Dear Cor Nouws,

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
