[OASIS Issue Tracker] Created: (OFFICE-3841) The color mode "Watermark" makes images pale, not transparent

    The color mode "Watermark" makes images pale, not transparent ------------------------------------------------------------- Key: OFFICE-3841 URL: http://tools.oasis-open.org/issues/browse/OFFICE-3841 Project: OASIS Open Document Format for Office Applications (OpenDocument) TC Issue Type: Bug Components: Graphics Affects Versions: ODF 1.2 Reporter: Regina Henschel Priority: Minor Fix For: ODF 1.2 Errata 01 In section 20.104 draw:color-mode ODF1.2 specifies "watermark: colors are modified to make the resulting image transparent." That is wrong, the image becomes pale, not transparent. The property is only implemented in LibreOffice and ApacheOpenOffice, not in Calligra and not in MS PowerPoint2010. MS PowerPoint2013 has a general error in display of images with assigned filter and can not be taken as reference. The help text in LibreOffice and AOO says, "The graphic object is raised in brightness and reduced in contrast so that it can be used in the background as a watermark." For an errata I suggest to exchange "transparent" with "pale". We might consider to describe this filter in more detail in ODF1.3. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://tools.oasis-open.org/issues/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira

Just a quick note: Calligra does implement watermark, and we have implemented it as making the image more transparent. So no, I don't particularly agree we should change the specification.
