Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 21145
Unable to protect size of presentation template outline area
Last modified: 2017-05-20 11:08:59 UTC
In a presentation template slide I have the usual title and outline text areas. Now I'd like to protect the outline area's size and position. This seems to be impossible. Here's what I did: * Went to the master view. * Checked "Position" and "Size" (see attachment) * Did not check "Fit height to text" While these settings work in the master slide itself they are not obeyed in the normal slides: I can still resize and move the outline area, and if I add more text lines to it the area is expanded vertically, i.e. the height is fitted to the text. BTW, it seems that other attributes of the outline master are also not carried on to the normal slides. I detected this for text effect settings but didn't investigate it any further.

Set to new and change the target
I can reproduce the bug. Please have a look.
this is not a bug but a misunderstanding of the current concept. There are not formatings that are inherited from the placeholder on the master page. All formating on these placeholders are transfered to the corresponding presentation styles. Thats the way theire applied to presentation objects on the slides itself. Only the size and position is directly inherited from the master pages placeholders. But protecting size and position this way for presentation objects on the slides is an interesting feature, I may add this later
