[Bug 873287] Re: Writer Picture Background No Fill does not persist saving to .doc

 

Yiannis Barbanas, the issue you are reporting is an upstream one and it
would be nice if somebody having it could send the bug to the developers
of the software by following the instructions at
http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/BugReport . If you have done so,
please tell us the number of the upstream bug (or the link), so we can
add a bugwatch that will inform us about its status. Thanks in advance.

** Summary changed:

- LibreWriter doesn't keep the transparency of PNG pictures after Save and Reopen
+ Writer Picture Background No Fill does not persist saving to .doc

** Description changed:

- I insert a Picture in my document (PNG with transparency)
- I click on it, select Picture and select "No fill" for "Background".  My picture becomes transparent.
- I save the document.
- I close the document.
- I open it again and my picture is not transparent any more.
