Bug ID: 170851
Summary: Field with type "File name without extension" not
working properly in version 26.2.0 on Windows
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 26.2.0.3 release
Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
OS: Windows (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Writer
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Description:
After automatic update to version 26.2.0.3, all documents with the field type
“File name” and format “File Name without extension” started to show format
“Path” instead. When configured again, the field showed the right format only
until the document (old or new one) was reopened, returning to show “Path”.
Rebuilding the user profile doesn’t solve the issue. Reinstalling the previous
stable version (25.8.4) made Writer show the field format properly again.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. In a new or old document, insert a field (Ctrl+ F2), define its type as
'File name' and its format as 'File name without extension'. The field should
correctly display the chosen format.
2. Save and close the document.
3. Reopen the document and the field will show the 'Path' format instead of
'Filename without extension.'
Actual Results:
In version 26.2.0.3 of LibreOffice Writer, the field only displays the chosen
format 'Filename without extension' after manual configuration. If the document
is reopened, it displays the path where the file is saved.
Expected Results:
The field should display the chosen format as in previous versions of
LibreOffice.
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: Yes
Additional Info:
1. I reset user profile twice before reinstalling an older version of
LibreOffice.
2. Uninstalling LibreOffice 26.2.0.3 and reinstalling 25.8.4 solved the
problem, including on old documents. After autoupdate to version 26.2.0.3, the
problem has come back. Then, uninstalling and installing 26.2.0.3 solved the
problem again.
