Bug ID: 166624
Summary: Should Impress export animated SVGs?
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 25.2.3.2 release
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: enhancement
Priority: medium
Component: Impress
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Description:
I created a simple animation in Impress and would like to use that animation in
another software (or maybe just show it on my web browser).
Since Impress has the option to export to SVG, I thought it might be able to
export the presentation as an SVG animation.
But as far as I could try, it just exports the first slide, and the file throws
an error when trying to open it in the browser.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a simple interactive animation (see attached example)
2. Export as SVG
3. Open the SVG file on a web browser
Actual Results:
When opening the SVG file into a web browser, the animation does not work. Only
the initial state of the slide is shown.
The file shows errors like "DelayEvent.fire: assertion isCharged failed. The
presentation engine will be stopped."
Expected Results:
Since
a) The slide has an animation
b) SVG format supports interactivity and animations
c) Nothing is said contradicting this in the documentation (1)
Then I would expect that the animation is exported as SVG animation, and that
is would retain the effects added in the slide.
Regarding c): I understand that the fact that a given format is partially
supported (in this case, SVG) doesn't necessarily mean that LO can export with
all the target format capabilities. I'm just saying what I would expect without
any previous knowledge, and I am mostly here trying to see if this is even
possible.

Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: Yes
Additional Info:
The SVG seems to have the motion coded in it. Maybe it is malformed?
