Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 15745
Opening Star office 5.2 presentations
Last modified: 2003-09-08 16:54:41 UTC
When opening presentations created in 5.2, and some MS Powerpoint presentations, the presentation component will only run one frame of the presentation, then go to the exit frame (black with click prompt). These presentations opened normally in v 1.03 and previous. Also, the options to change frame options were grayed out, so no modification possible to correct the problem.
Additional information: after further fiddling, discovered that deleting the first frame allows the presentation to operate normally.
Reassigned to Christian.
Please attach a sample document to reproduce the bug.
Created attachment 6968 [details] Sample file with problem. This file part of larger.
The behaviour to star a presentation has been changed for a short while. In the past the presentation starts allways with the first slide. The changed behaviour is that the presentation starts with the current slide. This is also the reason why the range option are grayed out. In the next version (OOo1.1RC) the default behaviour is still 'start presentation allways with current slide' but the range settings are usable again. To change the behaviour and start the presentations allways with the first slide you must deselect 'start presentation allways with current slide' in 'Tools/Options/Presentation/General'. Please tell me if this 'fix' the bug. I hope I could help
Problem solved, on all files tested. Thanks!
I close the issue.
