Missing Backwards Compatibility

I created a writer document with OOo 1.0.1. The document contains four pictures in a table. I loaded the document with OOo 1.1 RC modified it and saved it again. Maybe I also modified it with 1.1 Beta 1+2, I don't remember anymore. Now when the document is loaded with OOo 1.0.1 three of the four pictures (namely the pictures showing the OOo-Birds, the AbiWord and the MozillaMail-Logo) do not appear anymore. Thanks a lot to all OOo-developer! Samuel
Created attachment 8466 [details] Three images in this document do not appear in OOo 1.0.1
OD->Samuel (15.08.2003): The graphics don't disappear, they have an transparency of 100%. Thus, they are not visible. Workaround for OOo 1.0.1: Look in the navigator and You will find the graphics. Double-click the graphics in the navigator in order to select the corresponding graphic and change the transparency value in the toolbar from 100% to 0% and the graphic will come back to Your view. Cause of the defect: During development of OOo 1.1 we figured out, that the transparency value range [0..100] isn't saved correctly in the XML file - it was mapped to the range [-100..-21]. Thus, we corrected this for OOo 1.1 and we introduced a patch in OOo 1.0.2/1.0.3 in order to read 'old' incorrect values and 'new' corrected values. Thus, it's fixed in OOo 1.0.3
