------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sun Feb 25 22:16:22 +0000 2007 ------- ATM if you create a document and later want to updtate the formatting to a new template, you either copy and paste the entire document into a fresh document made by the template, or you apply the template by 'importing styles' now the first method is inconvenient, especially if you have some important fields and setup details, such as finely arranged picturing that may get trashed by the copy and paste process, or a linked in database, or a document description. The second method means you are condemned to update the styles manually every time the template changes, instead of them being updated automagically as they should be, this is inconvenient for people like me who have a base of documents all formatted to a select set of templates which I may suddenly decide to change at some point. The simplest solution would be to allow the user to refresh the template, thus load in all the styles and get the documents 'template' property to point to the new template. I would do this myself, but ATM i'm just a user, and have no experience with OO code --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
