Problem with evoking simultaneous custom animations in impress

[maddoxflower]

Binary package hint: openoffice.org

In OpenOffice Impress, when I use custom animations to make shapes disappear, the disappearing does not work when evoked together with another effect, i.e. by choosing the start option "With previous" or "After previous". See attached minimal example presentation.

If "On click" is chosen, everything works fine.

Seems to work again with OOo 3.3.0 RC3 m12 (build:9539).

maddoxflower, thank you for reporting this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. I could not reproduce this problem in Ubuntu 11.04, LibreOffice Impress at the Terminal:

cd ~/Desktop && wget https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openoffice.org/+bug/668397/+attachment/1715792/+files/oobug.odp && loimpress -nologo oobug.odp

Under Tasks click Custom Animation -> click second animation entry top to bottom entitled Shape 2 -> Start After Previous -> click third animation entry top bottom entitled Shape 1: Appears on click Disappears on second click, instead a smiley appears -> Start on Click -> F5 -> click Space Bar notice both rectangle & smiley appear -> click Space Bar notice rectangle disappears, smiley remains -> click Space Bar presentation ends

Is this the animation combination you were looking for?
