Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 53801
Saved file loses the formats for some objects
Last modified: 2008-05-18 22:49:27 UTC
When saved, a file with a digram "loses" the following formats on some of the text objects: 1. background color 2. line type I have tried the same file in two diferent computers, loosing different parts of the format. I can supply an example file, but don´t find where to attach it.
Created attachment 29070 [details] diagram with text and connectors
Could you please attach a screenshot so I can se how it should look like? If I understand you right the attached file has already lost some formats. Thanks in advance.
Rigth, the file i sent already has lost some of its characteristics. Try this: 1. Pick one of the plain text objects on the chart (the ones without background color) 2. Change the linetype from "invisible" to "continuous" 3. Change the background color to any solid color 4. Repeat steps 1 to 3 for the remaining plan text objects 5. Save the file 6. Close the file 7. Reopen the file Voila, some of the text objects didn't retain their format.
Sorry, still not reproducible. Can you attach a detailed step by step description of your actions to change the attributes? Thanks again.
This is wath i have found: 1. Select the left most text of the diagram by left clicking on it 2. From the lines and filling toolbar choose "color" and apply any color 3. From the same toolbar choose "line style" continuous 4. Save the file 5. Close the file 6. Reopen the file The reopened file keeps the format Now try this: 1. Select the left most text of the diagram by left clicking on it 2. From the main tool bar choose the "format brush", pick the format from the left most text (the one you apply formats to in the previos example) and apply it to the next unformated text 4. Save the file 5. Close the file 6. Reopen the file The reopened file do not keep the format applied with the brush, but does keep the one applied with the line and fill toolbar, or by that matter by changing linetypes and filling colors in the propierties window.
Thanks for the explicit explanation, that helped. Reproducible.

Checked with both OOo 2.4 and 3.0 beta and there is no problem. I think the issue should be marked as solved.
