--- Comment #5 from Alberto <[email protected]> ---
If I want to set a reference to a input field, in order to repeat its content
in another point of the document, the operation of "cross-reference->set
reference", put the reference next to the input field and not "over" the field.

Step to Reproduce:
1 - Insert->Field->More Field->Function->Input Field Reference: My_name->Insert
2 - In the open windows write: John ->OK
4 - Close "Field window"
5 - At the cursor point appair "John" with gray background
6 - Double click on "john" to change the name
7 - Now i want to repeat the field content in another point of the document, so
I want set a cross-reference "around" the input field
8 - Click at the left of the input field, in order to have the cursor at the
left of the field but before the field
9 - shift+right arrow so the field is highlighted
10 - Insert->Cross-reference->set reference: Name=test_ref ->Insert
11 - The reference is set next to the field and not "with" the field, so on the
document I read "JohnJohn" and the reference It does not include the the single
content of the input field. If I change the field content from "John" to
"Mary", the "external" reference say still "John".

Version: 7.5.4.1 (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community
Build ID: 50(Build:1)
the result is good.
The bug is present on both windows and linux
Thanks
