[Libreoffice-bugs] [Bug 86484] Exporting a Master document and editing the subsequent exported file fails as the exported file is read-only
https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=86484 Heiko Tietze changed: What|Removed |Added Status|NEW |RESOLVED Resolution|--- |DUPLICATE --- Comment #4 from Heiko Tietze --- Exporting a master document to standard ODT converts the individual files into sections that link to the target document, which is more or less the same as a master document. It's well documented and I don't see a reason to change the behavior. Nevertheless this ticket is a duplicate. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 52444 *** -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.___ Libreoffice-bugs mailing list Libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-bugs

I wouldn't expect the sections and read-only settings to remain after the conversion back to ODT, so let's mark this as an enhancement and change Status -> NEW. There is limited documentation about this behavior, but it doesn't explain why retaining read-protected sections is the default: https://help.libreoffice.org/Writer/Working_with_Master_Documents_and_Subdocuments#To_Export_a_Master_Document_as_a_LibreOffice_Text_Document At the very least, I think it would make sense to add a warning when converting ODM -> ODT. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. ___ Libreoffice-bugs mailing list Libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-bugs
[Libreoffice-bugs] [Bug 86484] Exporting a Master document and editing the subsequent exported file fails as the exported file is read-only
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=86484 --- Comment #1 from Rohinton --- I have done a bit more digging and see the following, which may mean my expectation of export is incorrect. Basically I am using export to reconstitute the original document, as it was before I converted it to a 'Master' document. This way I can Save As... a different format, required by the receiver of this document. I see, via the navigator pane, a normal result as if this was a single document however in the 'Sections' section I guess what are the original links to the sub documents? And finally if I remove the entries from "Sections" I am back to my original document So is my assumption of Export reverting this back to a single document/file is incorrect, but it is the only way to get what I need. Is this just a documentation issue then? Why are the entries in the "Sections" there in the first place after an export? As removing them now gives me what I wanted. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. ___ Libreoffice-bugs mailing list Libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-bugs
