Description Eyal Rozenberg 2022-12-23 14:20:16 UTC

Impress has objects contains multi-paragraph text. These paragraphs have individual settings of alignment, direction, line spacing, space before/after, etc. - but there are no Paragraph Styles - in the same or similar sense as those of LO Writer - which we can apply to them. At least, the is no UI for adding such styles.

As Regina Henschel indicated in the discussion on bug 40871, comment 14 - the ODF spec _does_ support paragraph styles in presentation; and MS Powerpoint presents such presentations correctly.

These styles should be fully supported in LO Impress/Draw.

You have not assigned to yourself for solving it.
So someone else must set up as 'new'
And IMO it's a request for enhancement.

... hence it's not "ASSIGNED".

> So someone else must set up as 'new'

It's a split-up of a NEW issue for both CS and PS, both of which were recognized as desirable - so, two NEW bugs. Other bugs -  Slide style, Table styles - are UNCONFIRMED.

> And IMO it's a request for enhancement.

For PS - It isn't, since it's an existing ODF feature, which PowerPoint supports, so it's just missing, not just that it would be better to have it.

That is a document about reporting bugs. I'm not reporting a bug, so that doesn't apply. Stop playing with the bug status please.

Yes, as it is inherited from bug 40871 the status can be NEW right away.

Comment 6 Eyal Rozenberg 2023-01-16 11:43:57 UTC

Regina had indicated that ODF already supports these (see https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=40871#c14).
