https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=98284 --- Comment #8 from giovani --- Hi guys! Thanks you all the feedback about this subject. I think the main problem in my case is that in LO 7.3 I don't have this "fixed content" pre-checked and in LO 7.4 I did. Why this behavior changes from LO 7.3 to LO 7.4 version? It's the same document with two different behaviors. When Justin L says "(Unfortunately, LO needs to be extended to support both visual compatibility and F9 update-ability.)". What "needs to be extended" is? Is some software to be installed? Is there anything that I can do to maintain the behavior of the LO 7.3 version? In other words, is there anything that I can do to this custom fields update automatically? I appologize my lack of knowledge on this subject. Thank you all again, Giovani Valle Dalbosco -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

Blocks|104527 |113200 OS|Windows (All) |All CC||jl...@mail.com --- Comment #5 from Justin L --- I know this problem very well, but I don't see an existing bug report about it. MS Word does not automatically update fields to point to their variable values on file open. Instead, it just displays the last-saved-text. It is only when the user selects the field and presses F9 that the contents of the field change to match the variable's value. In this document, when the field is updated, it displays MACRO CARRIER - which is the File - Properties - Title of the document. LO automatically displays the variable in the field, and updates as soon as the variable changes (which seems very sensible...). So for compatibility, LO needs to add a flag to variables to soft-lock the imported contents until they get an user-initiated refresh.
