Bug #: 53165 Summary: : Writer - Bibliography Entries don't get updated if biblio DB is changed Classification: Unclassified Product: LibreOffice Version: 3.5.5.3 release Platform: Other OS/Version: All Status: UNCONFIRMED Status Whiteboard: BSA Severity: normal Priority: medium Component: Writer AssignedTo: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org ReportedBy: bz-freedesk...@florian-schmitt.net Problem description: Writer doesn't honor changes of bibliography database entries when updating a bibliography. It seems that Writers saves the biblography entries in the local document even if "from bibliography database" is selected when inserting a bibliography entry. The strange thing is that if you insert a reference to the same entry of the biblio DB after changing it, LO Writer offers to insert the Bibliography Entry _based_ _on_ _document_ _content_. Obviously, Writer saves the biblio entry in the local document instead of referencing the biblio db. Steps to reproduce: Method 1: --------- 1. Create a new writer document; 2. Insert a new bibliography entry using menu "Insert" -> "Indexes and Tables" -> "Bibliography Entry"; make sure that "From Bibliography database" is selected. 3. Insert a new Bibliography using menu "Insert" -> "Indexes and Tables" -> "Indexes and Tables...", Type "Bibliography". Writer should insert a Bibliography with one entry. 4. Edit the bibliography database: either using Menu "Tools" -> "Bibliography Database", or by hitting F4: make sure to edit the bibliography entry you've inserted in step 2; 5. Update all fiels using Menu "Tools" -> "Update" -> "Update all". or Method 2: --------- 1. Create a new writer document; 2. Insert a new bibliography entry using menu "Insert" -> "Indexes and Tables" -> "Bibliography Entry"; make sure that "From Bibliography database" is selected. 3. Edit the bibliography database: either using Menu "Tools" -> "Bibliography Database", or by hitting F4: make sure to edit the bibliography entry you've inserted in step 2; 4. Insert a new Bibliography using menu "Insert" -> "Indexes and Tables" -> "Indexes and Tables...", Type "Bibliography". Writer should insert a Bibliography with one entry. Current behavior: - Method 1: The Bibliography isn't updated using the most current data from the Bibliography DB. - Method 2: The inserted Bibliography uses the initial bibliographic data of the biblio entry instead of the current data. Expected behavior: - Method 1: The Bibliography should get updated, reflecting the changes in the biblio DB. - Method 2: The inserted bibliography should use the current data from the biblio db.
