This issue is indeed a duplicate of #57941. However, that issue is shown to be
closed, and erroneously
IMO. The resolution shows that OOo should use a *registered* template over one
which is merely saved
in the templates folder. That may be correct, but it isn't what's happening
here. We're *replacing* a
registered template, and OOo does not detect that the template has been changed
because there are
two templates of the same name and different extensions.
Expected behavior: When an .stw is opened, modified, and saved with
File->Templates->Save, OOo
properly notifies the user of the impending overwrite. But it doesn't
overwrite. It saves a new template
with the .ott extension. If "Overwrite?" is confirmed through the
File->Templates->Save selection, OOo
should erase the .stw file after writing the .ott file.
As OOo now operates, the user must manually remove the .stw file from the
~/Library/.../template
directory in order to access the newly save .ott template from
File->New->Templates and Documents.
If that .stw is NOT removed, OOo uses it instead of the .ott template. Why
should a user have to Import
a template that was just saved through the standard template
creation/modification process? Keep in
mind that the majority of office software users don't know how to find that
directory in the file system,
let alone have sense (and courage) enough to delete it manually.
