Someone on the Writer forum reported this: the message you used
to get when opening a document linked to a template, asking if
you wanted to "apply your current styles" (after the styles in
the template were changed), no longer appears in OOo2.0.2, and
there seems to be no way to have the document's styles update if
you want it to. I have confirmed this, but I don't know when the
function (and the message) disappeared from OOo, because I
haven't used linked templates since 1.1.x.
Does anyone on this list know if this problem has been reported
and if so, what the issue number is? (I can never find anything
by searching IssueTracker.) I certainly hope it wasn't a
deliberate omission, because this is a very important feature for
many people, esp. those involved in a group project such as
writing chapters of a book.
Yes, I know the workaround: Use "Load Styles". But that's
cumbersome, not automatic, and requires users to know that the
template has changed so they need to update their styles.
Thanks! -- Jean
