Bug ID: 146525
Summary: An option to disable "The template, on which this
document is based, has been modified"
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 7.2.4.1 release
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: enhancement
Priority: medium
Component: Writer
Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org
Reporter: avtomot...@gmail.com
Description:
Consider the following case:
You have about 100 documents that are based on the template Foo. Then you need
to adjust this template in some way. For example, you may decide to change the
color of the Text Body style from black to red.
And then, each of the hundred documents, when you open them for the first time,
will ask you:
```
The template Foo, on which this document is based, has been modified. Do you
want to update the styles of the current document, using the modified template?
[Update Styles] [Keep Old Styles]
```
The problem is that pressing the "Update Styles" each time you open one another
document, even for the first time only, is boring. Yes, this works as a safety
belt, and in most cases this is a useful thing.
But this will be great to have a tweak under "Tools > Options > LibreOffice >
Advanced > Open Expert Configuration" to disable this window and update styles
automatically (when you open a document). For people who really know what they
do and who don't like to press the "Update Styles" button too often.
That is, if you have changed the color of the Text Body style in the template,
and then you open a document that is based on it, the color of the Text Body
style should be changed to red automatically, without asking user whether the
user want to update styles or keep old.
Please note that I talk about a tweak in the "Expert" set of options. This will
not harm the workflow of average users.
