Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 17319
cropped LINKED images - powerpoint files incompatibility
Last modified: 2005-04-08 16:59:44 UTC
a serious problem of compatibility with M$ powerpoint: If you insert images in powerpoint AS EXTERNAL LINK (in order to reduce file dimension when several images are used), then crop them with a graphic interface command, only the desired part of the picture is now visible. If you open such a file in Impress the images are completely visible, but resized (and with wrong proportions) in the space assigned during crop operation in powerpoint: the file made in MS Office is not useable in Openoffice. on the other side: I found no problem exporting an OOo file (with cropped linked images) in ppt format, then opening the file with Powerpoint. Please see my attached files, thank you. (Please excuse me if this issue was a duplicate, I have not found any issue related to this problem) Luca Belmondo (alias mikedonovan), Italy
Created attachment 7979 [details] This file is self-extracting archive, please leave the predefined folder, otherwise images will not be seen, thank you.
Reassigned to Christian.
Set to new and change the target.
Reassign to SJ I can reproduce the bug. Please have a look.
The same things happens for me when images aren't externally linked in powerpoint.
This same problem occurs with Word files edited using Openoffice Writer. I guess there is common code for both components.
accepted.
sj->ka: I don't know what's wrong, but if I am loading the document "cropped_with_powerpoint_open_with_OOo.ppt" there is only a default graphic visible. The linked graphic is not shown. If I now select the SdrGrafObj and update the link via edit/links/update, then the graphic is shown, this means that the url to the graphic is correct .. The link is being set in svx/source/msdffimp.cxx with following code: if ( bSetFileName ) ((SdrGrafObj*)pRet)->SetFileName( aName ); If you are out of time for this goody, then don't hesitate to send this issue back to me or dbo.

Crop parameters are currently never read when loading linked graphics (msdffimp.cxx). Even patching the code to read the crop params in this case gives no cropping, since all crop params are set to 0. There needs to be some more investigation by Sven. Problem that linked graphics are not initially displayed at all, has been fixed on CWS svg03.
