Impress Presention view - Notes are not formatted?

[jag101]

Hi,

I’m using Impress, having shifted from MS Powerpoint.

When in Presentation mode (with two screens), I’m unable to display formatted Notes. The Notes are displayed as plain text, with no paragraph breaks or font formatting.

I’ve formatted the text in the Notes view, but this does not make any difference to how they are displayed in the Presentation mode.

I tried searching for this, and wondering if this still remains a problem for Impress?

Any advice appreciated.

Where to place an enhancement request?

At the page http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/feedback/ I feel invited to file an enhancement request. “File an enhancement request Missing a feature or thinking of a new feature that would make LibreOffice even better than it is today? Let us know!” However, following the link, I am ending up with filing a bug report. Is this the same? I just want to be sure to put my request at the right place such that it is read and maybe commented by the developers and not ignored or deleted.

Ok, so what I’m understanding that this is a current limitation of Impress? And I should submit an enhancement request.

It’s disappointing that in Presentation Notes view, we can’t even have paragraph spacing, which would make reading the text much easier.

At the moment, to create paragraph spacing I’m having to insert a dash between the lines in the Notes text, which is cumbersome.
