I recently reported a Priority 2 bug in the OO.o 1.9.104 beta release
(Issue #49865), occasioned by the severe loss of data in files
containing several versions of a document. The problem was provoked by
the conversion process to version 2 file formats (.sxw to .odt and .sxc
to .ods) in that all versions of the document but the current one were
discarded.
Well and good so far, but the response to the issue was surprising in
its MS-like quality - it's not a bug, it's a feature!
I'd like to know if any other users have made use of the version saving
capabilities in OO.o 1.1.4 (and earlier) to maintain an audit trail of
document changes, and whether they share my dismay at its disappearance
in OO.o 2.0?
Hi Peter,
If I understand the feature correctly, it makes sure that with a 'save
as', the versions are removed. Thus automatically making sure that only
the owner of the original document knows the document´s history. Not a
bad idea.
However, this blocks your wish to change files from .sxw to .odt ...
I can agree with you that there should be a posiblity to keep your versions.
Kind regards,
Cor
