Valentin Sipica, this issue is a confirmed regression of LibreOffice Impress as I checked the functionality of OpenOffice.org Impress in Ubuntu 10.10 via the Terminal:
cd ~/Desktop && wget https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libreoffice/+bug/761597/+attachment/2040634/+files/example.tar.gz && file-roller -h example.tar.gz && cd example && soffice -impress -nologo prez.odp click the picture -> Insert -> Picture -> From File... -> File name: DecayLength_Bs.gif -> Open button Notice the original picture has been replaced with DecayLength_Bs.gif and the size is the same as the original picture. One thing is their may be design reasons why this functionality has changed from OOo to LO. However, I do not know if this is the case and it's certainly worth a look into. lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 10.10 Release: 10.10 apt-cache policy openoffice.org-writer openoffice.org-writer: Installed: 1:3.2.1-7ubuntu1.1 Candidate: 1:3.2.1-7ubuntu1.1 Version table: *** 1:3.2.1-7ubuntu1.1 0 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ maverick-updates/main i386 Packages 500 http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ maverick-security/main i386 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 1:3.2.1-7ubuntu1 0 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ maverick/main i386 Packages -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/761597 Title: libreoffice impress: cannot replace existing image with new image -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
