[email protected] changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ever confirmed|1 |0 Status|NEEDINFO |UNCONFIRMED --- Comment #2 from [email protected] --- For v. 7.2.4.1, the problem is still present. Specifically, when a DOCX file is imported with 0000:00:00 in the date fields ("null date") of tracked changes, LibreOffice displays them with that date and saves them when exported to an ODF file. However, when the ODF file is then opened by LibreOffice, the null date seems to be ignored: the changes are no longer marked as tracked, and the date field is not retained when the file is saved (again to ODF). HOWEVER, I did see the report in the release notes: "In the Security Options dialog, choosing "Remove personal information on saving" now removes names and dates from comments and tracked changes. core commit 12da70. (László Németh, NISZ)". So upon importing the DOCX file with the null dates for tracked changes, I set the security option to "Remove personal information on saving", and upon saving to ODF format, the date was changed to 1970:01:01 and the changes were then successfully recognized as tracked with that date upon opening the ODF file. This is a step forward, but users cannot be expected to know to change this setting after importing DOCX files with null dates for tracked changes. So LibreOffice needs to *automatically* insert 1970:01:01 into the date fields of tracked changes when importing such DOCX files. Thank you for your help. (PS. I have donated to LibreOffice) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
