fig_wrigth, see bug 285998 if that is what you experienced. There are several problems regarding templates right now:
- there are no default templates (see this bug 372132 ) - the right click menu is pointless by default right now - there is no obvious way to make it useful -- (like an "click here to install some templates"-menu item instead of the "no templates installed"-menu item you cannot click) - there is a ~/Templates folder in user's home that is of no obvious use and that is not hidden by default (bug 193689) - things are permanently messed up if you remove that folder (bug 285998) - in nautilus there is a Go->Templates menu item that is documented/explained poorly that whole Templates-Thing should be overhauled and i find mac_v's post quite interesting. PS: as another example of possible usage, i know people that put "A4-landscape.odt", "A4-portrait.odt" (and so on) in there to spare configuring format and orientation every time. -- "Create Document" Templates difficult to use https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/372132 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to nautilus in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
