Bug ID: 172993
Summary: Changes to path for templates don't take effect in
Start Center UI
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 26.2.5.2 release
Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
OS: Windows (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: minor
Priority: medium
Component: UI
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Blocks: 61914, 103314
Description:
I am not sure this is the "official" way to manage my user templates, but I use
"Tools > Options > LibreOffice > Paths > Templates" and add the folder for my
own templates. This way my multiple profiles can share the same templates.
This has worked for me previously since I mostly use "File > Templates > Manage
Templates..." dialog in Writer/Calc to do template-related work. However today
I found out that this doesn't work for the Start Center "Templates" UI.
I created a new profile and added my own user templates path from Start
Center's "Tools > Options" menu, but my custom templates don't show up in the
Start Center. Only after I start Writer and try "Files > Templates > Manage
Templates..." did I see my custom templates. Editing and deleting paths don't
work in Start Center either.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. New profile.
2. In Start Center, use "Tool > Options..." dialog, choose "LibreOffice > Paths
> Templates", click "Edit..." button and add another folder that contains
user-customized templates.
3. Back to Start Center, click "Templates" on the left pane.
Expected Result:
See the user-customized templates in Start Center.
Actual Result:
No change to "Templates" page of Start Center.
