Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 75662
Custom animation on Masterslide doesn't work.
Last modified: 2013-08-07 15:20:06 UTC
- start an Impress - change to the slide master - insert an object - assign an custom Animation to the object (you don't see the preview of the custom animation) - start the presentation -> you see the object but without a custom animation.
Similar to issue 57050?
No, issue 57050 is about inheriting animations set on placeholder shapes on the master (f.e. title area) to the corresponding presentation shapes on the slide. This issue is about animated shapes on the master slide.
This is a serious issue. Not being able to animate objects on the Master is a big deal when coming from PowerPoint. Impress let's you go through all the motions with objects on the Master but then leaves you hanging. The custom animation you add to an object simply does NOT work. I feel this is a bug. Custom animation options shoudl not function if this is not allowed on Masters. Deactivating the Cutom animation option on Masters would save some frustration but getting them to work would truly solve the problem. I'm working with my company users to make the switch to Impress and this bug leaves PowerPoint with the upper hand.

is this also a duplicate of issue 73090: http://qa.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=73090
Was finally ready to try to embrace OOo but this one leaves me cold. Use presentations weekly and need to have animation. Can not take the time to animate each slide's text individually. Just bought a new Win7 machine and was SO hoping to not have to buy new MS Office. This feature is important enough to spend the money for MS PP.
duplicate to issue 57050, issue 73090 is about propagating animations from placeholders. Anyway we do not need three issues for two problems. *** This issue has been marked as a duplicate of 57050 ***
