I noticed that when I create an 'empty' presentation, it already <em>imposes</em> the "Title slide" layout. With these layouts, the first slide gets some weird properties, like not being able to move around the bullets in a list. By move around I mean: using the promote/demote, move up/ move down buttons of the "Text Formatting" Toolbar.
Although, I also noticed, I can move around the bullets to some extent using the outline tab. In the second slide things work as expected. I added the second slide using the slide panel and right clicking> New Slide. The second slide <em>automagically</em> begets the "Title, content" layout. Yet I'm still stumped by not getting an empty presentation, with empty layout! Hope this helps. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to libreoffice in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1087739 Title: Promoting/demoting items in a bulleted list not working in Impress Status in LibreOffice Productivity Suite: Confirmed Status in “libreoffice” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: On Ubuntu 12.10 64 bit: - create a new empty presentation with Impress - create a bulleted list with a few items - demote or promote an item by pressing the relative buttons in the toolbar, or using the the keyboard shortcuts (ALT+SHIFT+LEFT, ALT+SHIFT+RIGHT) Expected behavior: the item gets promoted or demoted What happens instead: nothing, the buttons in the toolbar appear disabled --- ApportVersion: 2.6.1-0ubuntu6 Architecture: amd64 DistroRelease: Ubuntu 12.10 InstallationDate: Installed on 2012-06-13 (177 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 12.04 LTS "Precise Pangolin" - Beta amd64 (20120328) MarkForUpload: True Package: libreoffice 1:3.6.2~rc2-0ubuntu4 PackageArchitecture: amd64 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.5.0-19.30-generic 3.5.7 Tags: quantal running-unity Uname: Linux 3.5.0-19-generic x86_64 UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to quantal on 2012-10-30 (38 days ago) UserGroups: adm cdrom dip lpadmin plugdev sambashare sudo To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/df-libreoffice/+bug/1087739/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
