--- Comment #16 from Heiko Tietze <[email protected]> --- (In reply to Mike Kaganski from comment #15) > Could you please explain this specific bit? I'm referring to this comment. (In reply to Mike Kaganski from comment #10) > When you open as copy, the original document with fixed fields is used as a > *template* for the new copy; and it's normal and expected that *for > templates*, the fixed fields are updated (that is one of the reasons to use > the fixed fields instead of inserting plain text). The point of "Date (Fix)" is to have a non-volatile value. While the ticket is about Open Copy it consequently applies to templates as well. At least I don't see any other way. If you have strong arguments to keep the behavior we should consider a different name for the variable. Something like "Date (at time of creation)". Sounds terrible, though. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
