impress interpretes gradient wrong in ppt import
Last modified: 2013-08-07 15:20:06 UTC
Impress interpretes the gradient used in the attached powerpoint presentation wrong. The direction of the used gradient is not correct. Therefore, the white logo look wierd. O.K. this is not a major issue. However, it disturbs data exchange with Powerpoint users.

Reassigned.
Set to new and change the target
I can see the bug in the attached document but I don't know how to reproduce it. Please have a look.

set target from 2.x to 3.x according to http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Target_3x
I can reproduce this issue with another file (but I am not allowed to publish it. I am sorry!). My file is produced with MS PPT 2007 and shows the same error - a horizontal flip of a gradient-image.

Sven, Martin, given the number of duplicates I suggest reconsidering the target and fixing (seemingly trivial import) bug earlier. Thank you very much. WBR, K. Palagin.
Yes, you are right, we should try to fix this issue earlier. OOo2.4 is in its final phase, so the next possible version would be OOo3.0, I change the target and will try my best to keep this date.
Thank you very much!!!!

I attach a odf file. Export it to ppt and close the document load it with ppt and compare it with the odf. there are some differences. open the ppt file in Impress and compare it with the odf there some additional differences.

Is this issue on track for 3.0? At least in OOo.org 3.0 Beta, this issue is not solved.
Issue with the PowerPoint Metro template; Its gradient goes from black on top to blue on the bottom, with the midpoint low. Impress fails to set the midpoint, it renders a straight gradient. Screenshot and sample attached.

Created attachment 53778 [details] Sample PowerPoint slide with Metro template. (Note this is ppt, not pptx, as pptx backgrounds don't work in Impress)
Although my issue with the Metro gradient is not a reversed vertical gradient, it was marked a duplicate of this.
