            Bug ID: 129820
           Summary: Format "Standard" appears (replaced) Format "General"
                    in Variables (Field) when opening an old .doc file
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.3.4.2 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: [email protected]
          Reporter: [email protected]

Tested with:  6.3.4.2  and 6.5.0.0.alpha

1.  Baseline condition:  Open a new document, Ctrl-F2, Variables Tab,
"General" shown in Format list ("Standard" is not).

2.  Open attachment 114832 from bug 90658, 
Ctrl-F2, Variables Tab, "General" is gone from Format list; "Standard" appears.

Is this considered problematic -- at least from a UI perspective?

(I understand that General/Standard are alternative labels for the same idea
(and code). I am not asking about their meaning.)

But my naive belief is that these labels should not change within the same UI 
(especially given the confusion that General and Standard seem to cause). 

Additional information:

I believe that I created this shift (from General to Standard) at least once in
a new (Untitled) document (while making different combinations of variable
types "Variable", "Input Field" and "User Field").  But could not find a way to
reproduce it.  So I mention this only as an unsubstantiated rumor.
