--- Comment #4 from Timur <gtimur at gmail.com> ---
Multiple issues here, Inherited from OO:

A. In case 3 problem seems to come from spaces in the custom SS name, as I
reported bug 142595 for PPT, but looks ODP also. If renamed to no spaces or run
after other custom SS, it runs OK. So I propose that one to be for this issue.

B. "If you press OK, Use custom SS checkbox should remain checked upon
reopening the dialog."
I find it a special case 3 which is probably related to previous point. 
After 1st change, all other changes in the dialog are saved with OK. 

C. Once you check "Use custom SS" and Start, even if you didn't check OK, Slide
Show – Slide Show Settings sets Custom SS. So F5 or Shift+F5 run that custom
SS, not normal show from 1.
Not sure if it should or not, rather not. Because if you run custom SS once you
may not want to do it always. You cannot run normal show from 1, until file is
reopened. 
Help says that OK (called Close there) closes the dialog and saves all changes.
Seems that Start behaves with saving, which shouldn't. 

So bug could be about C, or D - adding UX:

D. Whole "Use custom SS checkbox" seems strange and unneeded. If you open
Custom SS dialog, you obviously want to run custom SS, no checkbox needed. MSO
also doesn't have it. 
So we could remove that checkbox and have 2 buttons, one Start (maybe renamed
to Show) which would remember last ran show and other OK (Close and save
changes to custom SS).

E. Obviously not this bug, but I think that Custom SS icon could have a
drop-down with custom SS, as in MSO.
