3) What I done and what I expected:
Create a new impress presentation
Set the layout to "Blank Slide"
Place a rectangle on the slide
On the "Properties" panel, in the "Area" section choose "Gradient" for "Fill".
(A green gradient with direction "30°" appears as default settings).
In an attempt to change the direction, type "90[TAB]" in the direction field.

I expected the rectangle will have a gradation from top to bottom.
(gradation did not change)

4) What happened:
The number I typed in got a degree sign "°" appended.
The gradation direction did not change.

To see if the direction that I entered was stored in any way,
I clicked on the slide outside the rectangle, then clicked on the
rectangle again, to refresh the propeties section.
The direction field showed the original default value "30°"

I compared this to a windows version, recently installed, and
the windows version worked as I expected.

This is an unsupported release now. Please think to install the next LTS 'Bionic 18.04'

Marking as Invalid because the release is EOL is not correct. Marking as Incomplete. Also, 18.04 is (at the time of writing) still in development, and you should expect some breakage.

Reporter, is this still present on 17.10 or 16.04?
