Bug ID: 159059
Summary: AutoText: Removing Path to included AutoTexts does not
work as expected
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 7.3.7.2 release
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Writer
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Description:
it may be desirable to remove all pre-configured AutoText entries at once. A
reasonable option would be to remove the Path to the standard AutoText entries.
While the UI seems to expect this and one can remove the path, no changes are
actually made.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. open AutoText modal
2. select button `Path...`
3. select path to standard AutoText entries (in my case
`/usr/lib/libreoffice/share/autotext/en-US`)
4. select button `Delete`
5. accept changes by selecting button `OK`
Actual Results:
upon step 4 the path is deleted. selecting OK closes the `Path...` modal but no
changes are made to the entries. upon reopening `Path...` modal, the path to
the standard entries is there again.
Expected Results:
closing the `Path...` modal causes the change to be accepted and the standard
entries to be removed.
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: No
Additional Info:
removing the `.bau` files via sudo has the desired effect and is a reasonable
workaround. it is unclear if the files reappear upon update.
