Alex Thurgood <[email protected]> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Status|UNCONFIRMED |NEW Ever confirmed|0 |1 --- Comment #3 from Alex Thurgood <[email protected]> --- This would be an error - LibreOffice doesn't currently support creation of reports as Microsoft XML, so the switch to default to such formats should perhaps include a warning that it will not be applicable to database reports. That said, I'm not best placed to decide whether we should offer that possibility anyway. Personally, I don't see as a particular advantage, the whole point of the report writer is to produce ODF compliant documents from a linked database, but I can see the argument of wanting to be able to produce docx reports if the UI appears, via an application default setting, to offer that possibility. I also don't know how well our reports with various components (e.g. charts) currently export to docx (via the Save as menu), I would assume not very well, so this would open up a whole can of worms on that side. Confirming with regard to the application switch that doesn't offer what is written on the box, but opening up for debate as to whether it should. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
