Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 94366
new inserted slides always appear in last position
Last modified: 2008-09-29 09:04:23 UTC
No matter where in the slide sorter pane I attempt to insert a slide using the context menu, the slide always appears at the end of the slide list. This bug was not present in 2.4.1. Because this is the default way to create new slides for most users, this seems to be a quite severe issue for me.
I was able to reproduce this issue with the below steps. I tried the same steps in PowerPoint and I did not see the issue. There does appear to be a workaround, though. If you click on the slide before the position you want to insert the new slide, and add the new one, the new slide will go in the correct spot. Steps to reproduce: I used OpenOffice version OOO300m7 on Windows XP File –> New –> Presentation Select Empty presentation and hit Create Right Click under Slide1 and Select New Slide Enter some text into each slide (so you can tell them apart) – select a slide – click on the T on the bottom toolbar – left mouse and drag in the doc to create the outline box/border – click in the box and type Click on the Slide Sorter tab, so the middle pane now shows both slides Right click between the first and second slide and select new slide Notice the new slide (without any text) shows up in the 3rd position, rather than in the 2nd position that you placed it in
