--- Comment #3 from Joshua Kinard <[email protected]> --- (In reply to Heiko Tietze from comment #2) > IIUC, we check whether a name exists - slide names have to be unique.

Sounds weird > to me. By default, on the left-side column, slides do not have a visible name. Just a number and a thumbnail. It's "internal" name will, of course, be "Slide X", where X is the slide number. If a slide is renamed, then on the left-side column, there will then be the number, followed by the name, and the slide thumbnail will be slightly compressed underneath the name. One this happens, that visible name cannot be removed. The input dialog will not accept an empty string (field turns bright red), and you cannot change it to "Slide X" (again, where X is the slide number), as the field also turns red for that. The only way to get rid of the name and show again just the slide number and thumbnail at its original height, is to copy everything on the slide, create a new slide, paste it, then delete the old slide. There needs to be a way to remove the visible slide name. Either the input dialog needs to accept a blank string and treat it as a special case to clear the visible name, or there needs to be a context menu entry to "reset" the name, I assume back to the default "Slide X". -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
