Description Mr Curious 2020-04-18 00:29:30 UTC

Description:
Normally, when you copy and paste an object to another slide, it pastes in exactly the same position. However, if you resize an object such that the object's boundaries are smaller than the text in the object, then when you copy the object to another slide, it moves. Very annoying!

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Look at enclosed example. The object on the left will copy and paste to the same position in slide 2 as it is in slide 1.
2. The object on the right (which has been resized to smaller than the text area but is otherwise identical) will NOT paste into the same place on slide 2 as it is in slide 1.
3.

Actual Results:
Object on the right in the enclosed example (which has been resized to smaller than the text area but is otherwise identical) will NOT paste into the same place on slide 2 as it is in slide 1.

Expected Results:
Objects copied from one slide should paste onto other slides in exactly the same place.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: Yes



Additional Info:
May happen in earlier than 6.4.2.2rc

This commit was developed for another code base, and not merged by me. For complex changes like this, side-effects are to be expected; sadly I dont't have the cycles to deal with all the fallout. Un-Ccing myself for the while.

Dear Mr Curious,

To make sure we're focusing on the bugs that affect our users today, LibreOffice QA is asking bug reporters and confirmers to retest open, confirmed bugs which have not been touched for over a year.

There have been thousands of bug fixes and commits since anyone checked on this bug report. During that time, it's possible that the bug has been fixed, or the details of the problem have changed. We'd really appreciate your help in getting confirmation that the bug is still present.

If you have time, please do the following:

Test to see if the bug is still present with the latest version of LibreOffice from https://www.libreoffice.org/download/

If the bug is present, please leave a comment that includes the information from Help - About LibreOffice.

If the bug is NOT present, please set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED-WORKSFORME and leave a comment that includes the information from Help - About LibreOffice.

Please DO NOT

Update the version field
Reply via email (please reply directly on the bug tracker)
Set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED - FIXED (this status has a particular meaning that is not
appropriate in this case)

If you want to do more to help you can test to see if your issue is a REGRESSION. To do so:
1. Download and install oldest version of LibreOffice (usually 3.3 unless your bug pertains to a feature added after 3.3) from https://downloadarchive.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/old/

2. Test your bug
3. Leave a comment with your results.
4a. If the bug was present with 3.3 - set version to 'inherited from OOo';
4b. If the bug was not present in 3.3 - add 'regression' to keyword

Feel free to come ask questions or to say hello in our QA chat: https://web.libera.chat/?settings=#libreoffice-qa

Thank you for helping us make LibreOffice even better for everyone!

Warm Regards,
QA Team
