Seems Reporter wants that slide show starts after a double click on a thumbnail in the Slides Pane?

> 2. Nothing happens. Should start presentation at current slide.
Why?

@reporter:
Thank you for your report – unfortunately important information is missing.
May be hints on <http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/BugReport> will help you to find out what information will be useful to reproduce your problem? If you believe that that  is really sophisticated please as for Help on a user mailing list
Please:
- Attach screenshots with comments if you believe that that might explain the 
  problem better than a text comment. Best way is to insert your screenshots
  into a DRAW document and to add comments that explain what you want to show
- add information 
  -- what EXACTLY is unexpected
  -- and WHY do you believe it's unexpected (cite Help or Documentation!)
  -- concerning your PC (video card, ...)
  -- concerning your OS (Language)
  -- everything else crossing your mind after you read linked texts

It is the most logical action to start the slideshow at that point when the slide preview is double clicked.

Also, there is no need for more information. It's in all builds, all languages and all platforms.

We never had such a launch slideshow function as requested 

I don't think that we should do so. In Slide Sorter View the double click opens the slide edit view, why should a double click start a presentation? 

We already have the overly with Start Slide Show function, what will start the Show at the slide in what's thumbnail the start icon has been clicked. I doubt that an additional Slide Show start function is useful. Why only on thumbnail, not also from Navigator? And may be also a double click on the Slide itself could start the slide show? 

I see this one WONTFIX

@reporter:
May be you want to discuss that on <Libreoffice-ux-advise@lists.freedesktop.org>, but if you can't contribute much better arguments than here that will be useless.

Okay. I'll press F5 then.
