Bug ID: 162949
Summary: Writer confusion of preset captions with language
interface settings
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 24.2.6.2 release
Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
OS: Linux (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: minor
Priority: medium
Component: Writer
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Description:
I use the writer with German language settings working on an English text. I
made own captions for figures and tables with the appropriate names. Everything
works fine with captions and cross-references until I close and reopen the
document. After reopening fields of cross-references change from e.g. Figure 1
to 1. The field name (under edit field, not the real text) of the original
caption did change automatically form "Figure" to the German equivalent
"Schaubild". So libre office writer somehow identifies the manual made caption
"Figure" as the English preset and "changes" it to the German equivalent. Using
other caption names than the preset captions is working. Also changing
interface language to English is working to show the full cross-references
again. However, adding own captions should not collide with preset captions of
another language.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. use German as interface language
2. manually create caption (Figure or Table)
3. name figure or table and make cross references with category and number
4. save document and reopen it
Actual Results:
Former manual created caption "Figure" will be recognized as German equivalent
"Schaubild". Also manual made caption "Figure" cant be chosen anymore. As a
result cross-reference will lose its category, because the caption text in the
figure or table is different to the name of the caption field.
Expected Results:
Manual created caption "Figure" does not disappear and is not replaced by the
German equivalent. Cross-references stay as they should be.
Reproducible: Always
