Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 75863
"Invisible" autoshape text field from PPT is visible in OOo

Try attached sample document in PowerPoint and in OOo. I have no idea how this field in question has originally been produced in PowerPoint (it's from a customer) (I did manage to change the text in PowerPoint, though), and why anybody would want to use invisible text fields on their slides. But I guess odd crap like this is typical for the kind of PPT slides that really exists in the wild. If OOo very clearly behaves much differently than PowerPoint when importing a PPT slide, that is a problem.

Reassigned.
Confirming with OO2.2 on WinXP - Impress shows some objects that are not visible in PPT2003.

Changing the type of this issue to PATCH in the (vain?) hope of somebody noticing. A suggested patch is attached to issue 22210.
