Description Unknown 2003-02-12 08:41:30 UTC 
This bug also applies to OpenOffice 1.0.2 (it's not in the list of versions)

1. The size of arrow heads, at least for large arrow heads (5cm) on thick lines
(2cm), is saved wrong in powerpoint files.

2. Polylines and curves are completely messed up when saved as powerpoint, but
apparently only if they are on a very large poster (such as A0 format).

Under the URL above, you can find an example for bug #2. test.sxi is the correct
file, test.ppt was produced using save as Powerpoint from test.sxi.

Reassigned to Christian.

I can reproduce the bug.
setting a 'free' size for the arrowhead is a missing feature from PPT.

Hi Sven

Please have a look if we can do something that the arrowheads look
better in PPT.

I change the target and the owner.

The second part of your bug (Polylines) is fixed in the OOo1.0.2
Comment 5 Unknown 2003-02-14 09:49:29 UTC 
I just tried my example (see URL) again in OOo 1.0.2. 

The problem still exists:
1. Load test.sxi
2. Save as Microsoft Powerpoint 97/2000/XP
3. Close
4. Load test.ppt

Yes, seems to be some kind of overflow.
