If I get your description correctly you first changed the template of the old document. This was a change of the document. And if you select keep old styles, didn't you go back to a template version before your changed template? Your report needs more info about the steps to reproduce. You should also submit a test document without personal data. Please try out also a current version of LibreOffice (7.5.x). Dear Wungsten, This bug has been in NEEDINFO status with no change for at least 6 months. Please provide the requested information as soon as possible and mark the bug as UNCONFIRMED. Due to regular bug tracker maintenance, if the bug is still in NEEDINFO status with no change in 30 days the QA team will close the bug as INSUFFICIENTDATA due to lack of needed information. For more information about our NEEDINFO policy please read the wiki located here: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/QA/Bugzilla/Fields/Status/NEEDINFO If you have already provided the requested information, please mark the bug as UNCONFIRMED so that the QA team knows that the bug is ready to be confirmed. Thank you for helping us make LibreOffice even better for everyone! Warm Regards, QA Team MassPing-NeedInfo-Ping We seem to differ on whether this is a bug or a feature. However, please try this: 1. Create a new test template. 2. Create a new document from the test template. 3. Save the new document and close Writer. 4. Change the test template and close Writer. 5. Open the document. You get a dialogue saying, "The template 'Default' ...". Note that the template name is INCORRECT. 6. Click 'Keep old styles'. Note that the document is marked as Modified, even though no changes are visible. Don't save the document, just close Writer. 7. Repeat step 6. 8. This time click 'Update Styles'. Note that the document is marked as Modified, even though no changes are visible - changes made to the template in step 4 are NOT applied. Maybe I am confused about the precise meaning of 'Styles' in this context. Nevertheless, it seems wrong that the document is marked as Modified, even though no changes are visible. |
