--- Comment #3 from Justin L <jl...@mail.com> ---
What happens on a Microsoft system? Does the field update on those systems?
When I open "doc download.docx" in MS Word 2010, I see "My name is [nome]"
placeholder - which is the same as LO 7.4/24.2. So the current behaviour is
correct.
Because the file is saved in DOCX format, it needs to behave in the way that MS
Word expects it to behave. (Unfortunately, LO needs to be extended to support
both visual compatibility and F9 update-ability.)
If you want it to act "sanely", then you need to use ODF formats.
This can probably be marked as a duplicate of bug 98284. As OP noted, instead
of pressing F9 to update, the current way to "update" these fields in LO is to
edit them and remove the fixed flag. The topic of bug 98284 is that a soft-lock
needs to be introduced into LO - one that prevents auto-update but doesn't
block an F9.
