Description David Clinton 2023-03-21 01:23:46 UTC 
Description:
When I create a shape (i.e., rectangle) in an Impress document and place it partially or fully covering an existing shape, and then set the new shape to use a solid color fill with transparency, it works as expected. However, when I save the document and reopen it later, the transparent shape settings will have changed to a gradient fill, a different color, and an axial transparency. 
I haven't figured out a way to prevent this behavior. 

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create an shape object
2. Create a second shape object and place it over the first
3. Set the second object as fill=color, transparent=solid
4. Save and close the document
5. Reopen the document

Actual Results:
The original settings are lost (and the effect is pretty ugly)

Expected Results:
The original transparency settings should have persisted.


Reproducible: Always

I should add an important detail that I only just realised: this only happens when I save the file as a .PPTX, but saving to .ODG works fine.

test file

On pc Debian x86-64 with master sources updated today, I don't reproduce this.

I attached an example file.

Could you give a new try with LO 7.6.4 or brand new 24.2 version?
