            Bug ID: 140346
           Summary: Impress PPTX import: Rotates Text is imported
                    horizontal
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 7.1.0.3 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Impress
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: g.m.hagedorn at gmail.com

Description:
Powerpoint slides containing a text box with text that is rotated 90° oder
270°, will be unusable, because the rotation is ignored upon import into
Impress. NOTE: this applies to TEXT-ROTATION, not to the rotation of a box,
containing text. The latter works ok. However, many powerpoint users use the
rotate text funktionality. The "text direction  button" is a prominent button
in the Home Ribbon of Powerpoint, in the "paragraph" section (i.e., this is not
a rare formatting option). In my experience, it is my number one reason, why I
cannot advise people to use Impress, because so many slides will look badly
imported.  Keywords:  FILEOPEN, FORMATTING.

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Open attached PPTX file in Impress
2. Text on left appear ok. text on right ("Text  2 Text Direction rotate 90°"
etc.) is in reality rotated just like text on left, but using text formatting
instead of a rotation of the box.
3.

Actual Results:
see attached screenshot Impress.

Expected Results:
correctly display the text as formatted. See attached screenshots Powerpoint


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: Yes
