Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 38345
Text in right textbox in Slide with 2 textboxes not displayed in Outline-view
Last modified: 2017-05-20 11:08:27 UTC
In a Slide with a Title and two textboxes the text in the right textbox wasn't displayed in the outline-view. Only the text of the left box is visible.
Reproducible.
Reassigned to Christian.
I was able to reproduce the problem on Windows XP using OOo 2.1. Creating a new presentation with 2 text blocks from the Layout panel only displays the contents of the left text block in the outline view. Swapping the orientation so that the left box is on the right continues to show only the contents of the same originally left text block in the outline view.
This problem was pointed out by the user in Japan. When is the target milestone decided? Japanese bagtrack: http://oooug.jp/faq/index.php?faq/4/344
This issue has no easy fix. The outline view as it was implemented many many years ago never had this feature in mind. The bad thing is that the outline view is in a very bad shape, implementation wise. It is not possible to add any feature without a prior rework of the whole outline view implementation. We are talking about at least half a man year of work and that is for someone who already has a lot of experience in the impress code. Since we do not have the resources for that right now this is not scheduled for any release now.
I see what you mean. thank you.
