            Bug ID: 133319
           Summary: Paint fill tool has no effect
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.4.3.2 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Impress
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: turtle at strider21.com

Description:
Pretend you know nothing about LibreOffice and you came from using MS
PowerPoint...

If you click on the fill toolbar icon to change the color of an object, it does
nothing.

Steps to Reproduce:
1.  Draw a polygon that is not already filled.
2.  Select polygon if not already selected.
3.  Click on the polygon fill tool and select a fill color.

Actual Results:
Does nothing

Expected Results:
Expect it to fill with selected color.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No



Additional Info:
I know now, after much time wasted, that you can right click on an object and
select Area, which provides fill options.  That's great but if an object's fill
property is set to "none" by default, selecting a color on the toolbar does
nothing, which is non-intuitive.  If the polygon has no pre-existing fill, and
a color is selected from the toolbar, the fill property should automatically
convert to "color" with the selected fill color.  Also, the fill icon should
have a means of selecting the fill type:  None, Color, Gradient, Bitmap,
Pattern, Hatch.
