I’ve found few bugs in presentation editor.

  1. I added a footer with pictures in Slide Master and after saving the presentation and reopening, one logotype disappeared.

  2. When I try to use Placeholder (Text) in Slide Master. It’s impossible to set font. Only standard Arial is applied.

  3. There are no shortcuts to arrange element background or foreground.

Hi @Golembivskyi,

Thank you for the detailed report and the sample file!

1. Logo disappearing after save/reopen:
We tried to reproduce this — added several images to the Slide Master footer, saved, reopened — but all images persisted. Could you help us narrow it down?

  • Which version of ONLYOFFICE are you using (Help → About)?
  • Did you add the images directly on the Slide Master or on a specific layout? How many images were there originally, and which one disappeared?

2. Placeholder font in Slide Master:
This is a known issue that we’re already tracking. You can follow the progress here: PPTX > Mask > change default text placeholder. We’ll update both threads when a fix is available.

3. Shortcuts for arrange (foreground/background):
This is already registered as a feature request based on your earlier thread. For now, you can reorder elements via right-click → Order. We’ll update you when this becomes available.

One small ask for the future — it helps us a lot if you create a separate topic for each bug report or suggestion. That way each issue gets its own tracking and nothing gets lost in a mixed thread. Thank you!

Hi @Nurullo,

I created a group of elements (footer) in Slide Master. There were 3 logotypes. Then I copied this group to all slides. One interesting thing, that on the first slide all three logos displays well, but on other slides third logo displays as green rectangle. Ill demonstrate it in a video.

Agreed. Next time I will file each bug in a separate ticket.

Best Regards,
Volodymyr

Hi @Golembivskyi,

One more thing from our side — to help us narrow down the root cause, could you share:

  1. How was the presentation originally created? (started from scratch in ONLYOFFICE, based on a template, or imported from PowerPoint / another editor?)
  2. What can you tell us about the third logo (the one showing as a green rectangle)? Was it originally an SVG file? Where did it come from, and were any manipulations (editing, converting, resizing) done on it before inserting into the presentation?

Thank you!

Hello @Nurullo,

  1. This presentation was created from scratch in OnlyOffice Editor. No other programs, templates, etc. were used.
  2. It’s hard to remember what the original logo was like. But I can only say for sure about two possible options: the first - I used the file that the client gave me as it was; and the second option - I used Figma to make some changes to this logo. I also use Krita a lot, but I don’t think I used it that time.

Best Regards,
Volodymyr
