Bug ID: 129804
Summary: Conflicting template names
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 6.2.7.1 release
Hardware: All
OS: Windows (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: LibreOffice
Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org
Reporter: johnsmithbeat...@gmail.com
Description:
Consider you have 2 templates somewhere in the external directory (e.g.
C:\Users\John\Desktop):
one template is for Writer, and one template is for Calc.
They have the same base name: template. That is, their names are
template.ots and template.ott
Then, proceed the following steps:
1. Copy Writer template to the default templates directory; i.e.
C:\Users\John\AppData\Roaming\LibreOffice\4\user\template
2. Open Writer, select File > Templates > Manage Templates
and make sure the copied template is shown.
3. Delete the copied template from
C:\Users\John\AppData\Roaming\LibreOffice\4\user\template
4. Repeat steps 1 and 2 for Calc.
5. Don't delete Calc template. Copy Writer template.
Thus, you will have both templates in
C:\Users\John\AppData\Roaming\LibreOffice\4\user\template
6. Repeat step 2. The, repeat step 2 for Calc.
You will see that Writer "see" template.ott, but
Calc don't "see" template.ots
7. Rename one of these templates and see that problem is gone.
Now, both templates are "visible".
So, when we have templates with the same names (e.g. template.ots and
template.ott, or foo.ots and foo.ott), LibreOffice see only one of them.
