Hi Czeslaw I can confirm the glitch in Windows 7 x64
The window that you see now is actually the Slide Pane taking all the slide area (it is on top). Notice that you can close the Slide Pane by clicking on the Close button (X) to the left of Properties or by unchecking the tick in menu View > Slide Pane. There is however a simple solution: when the Slide Pane is open, click to the right of the word Slides and drag up in the direction of menu File and release when you see the box outline. Then simply drag it into place Hope this helps (if not email me for more details) Pedro > On April 9, 2020 6:13 PM Czesław Wolański <czeslaw.wolan...@gmail.com> wrote: > > > Hi, > > Hi team, > > My sincere apologies for delayed reply and even more sincere thanks to you > all for a warm welcome. > > I am not sure it's good news: same glitch occurs in AOO Impress. > > A video file is available at the following link: > > https://drive.google.com/open?id=1Uukw3xx1qTafuj2znLCnr6OBgE8YmoiE > > I would be glad if someone confirms my findings.
