Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 65050
missing content in notes view ...
Last modified: 2013-08-07 15:21:02 UTC
When you select the 'Notes' view for this (minimal) document, you see none of the content of the slides themselves: rather odd :-)
Created attachment 36242 [details] almost empty file
Reproducible. Reassigned.
Seems like a duplicate of 45923 and possibly 64384. Has the presentation been saved/loaded as ppt before the slide thumbnail disappears?
Please have a look.
Created attachment 51290 [details] A slightly modified document that works.
Created attachment 51291 [details] Difference between the flat xml versions of these two files
So, this is the verdict: If you look at the difference between the two files exported as indented flat xml, you will see that the issue is caused by the absence of <draw:page-thumbnail .../> tag in the original one. Since this file was produced by the ppt import. It would be very advisable to see why these property was not created on import. I modified the file by creating this tag with the dimensions and the position from the <draw:custom-shape .../> tag (+ also an automatic style that corresponds to this object). And the thumbnails suddenly appear correctly. I guess, it could be very easy to fix for someone who is familiar with the code, since all the information we need is already imported.
yes, the original bugdoc does not contain the thumbnail shapes. Looking at the file itself it clearly seems to be the result of an import from ppt. It would be cool to have the original ppt version of the document, I doubt that we fail to import the notes thumbnail from all ppt files. So without the original document this bug may not get fixed.
