I created a master/template in Impress by selecting:
Tools > Options > LibreOffice > Colors
to select colors for creating a new gradientFormat > Area : Gradients
to create the gradient using the selected colorsView > Master > Slide Master
in order to edit the slide masterFormat > Page
to set the page background to that gradient- Finally saved the file as template in
/.libreoffice/3/user/template
I then opened an existing presentation and selected:
Format > Slide Design : Load
and added my templateTask pane: Master Pages ...
right-clicked on my template to selectApply To All Slides
The template gets applied somehow, but fonts and font colors are not applied to the existing slides.
How does this work please? Or, is there a bug filed for this somewhere? Cheers!
