------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Tue Oct 31 07:44:11 -0800 2006 ------- Found a minor bug in updating the document after modifying a date field: Seems to be consistent from at least OOo1.1.5 (don't have an older version) to the latest versions (m188 on Windows here, m190 on Fedora IIRC). How to reproduce: 1. Open a new Writer document 2. Activate View - Field Names (must be marked) 3. Hit <ENTER> two or three times (not necessary but easier to describe) 4. Enter Date from Insert - Field - Date Document will show "date (fixed)" 5. Postion cursor before the field 6. Right click on field to open context menu 7. Choose Field 8. Modify "date (fixed)" to "date" in second column. 9. Hit "OK" Expected result: Document shows "Date" as field name Actual result: Document shows "Date (fixed)" Right description is shown immediately if you: - remove or add any character in the document (just hit <BACKSPACE> to remove the paragraph before) - toggle Field Names (in View menu) off and on again - add step 8b after 8: choose another date format in the third column of the dialog. So I assume that toggling between "date" and "date "fixed" is assumed not to change the view of the document and therefore it is not refreshed. If field names are invisible, this is true: the date itself is not changed. But with visible field names the change is not shown either. This bug might be a P5 either, as it occurs rarely and doesn't have any impact on functionality. But for people working with visible field names this scenario could lead to some irritations.
