Bug ID: 94461
Summary: Predefined Templates and Template Folders are not
Deletable in Template Manager
Product: LibreOffice
Version: unspecified
Hardware: Other
OS: Windows (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: LibreOffice
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Many users, I think most of them, do not use the predefined templates. This is
particularly the case, if users are not English, hence the predefined templates
are only offered in English. And even a user uses these templates, he or she
will not use all templates. Hence nearly in all cases the offered predefined
template structure (4 times (Tab Documents, Spreadsheets,..) 8 folders with
together 22 templates) is confusing and not necessary. Hence a user should be
able to delete predefined templates and folders in the Template Manager:
Deleting Files:
[1] Start LibreOffice and open Template Manager: File > New > Templates
[2] Select tab Documents and double-click “Business Correspondence”.
[3] Select template "Moderate" business letter.
[4] Click “Delete”. You are asked if you want to delete the selected template.
[5] Click “Yes”. You are informed that the template cannot be deleted.
Expected: Deletion of template.
Deleting Folders:
[1] Start LibreOffice and open Template Manager: File > New > Templates
[2] Select tab Documents and then select folder Presentations. (By the way: I
wonder why at all a folder Presentations is displayed in the tab Documents.)
[3] Click “Delete”. You are asked if you want to delete the selected folder.
[4] Click “Yes”. You are informed that the folder cannot be deleted. Expected:
Deletion of folder.
Proposal in order to fix this bug:
If a user profile does not exist and LibreOffice is started the first time, the
predefined templates should be copied into the new user profile. Hence the user
has the right to delete files and folders in his profile, it should be possible
to delete predefined templates and folders.
