Bug ID: 112213
Summary: Documents Based on Templates which are Read-only are
not Editable
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 5.4.1.2 release
Hardware: All
OS: Windows (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: UI
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
In order to reproduce:
[1] Create new text document and insert some text.
[2] Mark document “Read-only”: File > Properties… > Security > Check “Open file
read-only”, then “OK”.
[3] Save the document as template: File > Templates > Save as template… >
Insert template name > Chose template category > Save.
[4] Close the document without saving.
[5] Create new document based on saved template: File > New > Templates >
Double click new template. Document is opened in read-only mode.
[6] Try to reset Read-only Mode: File > Properties... > Security. Option “Open
file read-only” is greyed and can't be changed. Expected: Reset of Read-only
mode should be possible.
As a consequence it is not possible to protect a template against unwanted
changes. Templates can't be saved read-only if you want to use them.
To my opinion already at step 5 a document should not be opened as read-only.
You usually want to modify a new document also if you use a template.
