Description Robert Großkopf 2013-08-09 06:29:10 UTC
Open the database https://bugs.freedesktop.org/attachment.cgi?id=83873 . Start the report, so you could see how it works at this time. There is a bug in the first group - https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=67935 . Notice, that the first group looks different to the other groups (all dates where printed, for example).
Now open the report for editing.
Mark the field "Date" in the section "Detail". Edit the properties of this field. Change "Print repeated value on group change" to "No". Then start the report in the editing window with 
Edit → Execute Report
You could see the report has been changed. The date in the first group isn't printed when repeated. If this is the right behavior of the field doesn't mention. I don't know, but it seems to be a workaround for bug 67935.
Now save the report
File → Save
Start the report to execute the report again. Could you see, what you have been changed? The date is printed in the first report - if repeated or not.
Reopen the report for editing and have a look at the properties of "Print repeated value on group change". It is set to "Yes". It couldn't be saved as "No".
This bug doesn't say, that this function works right. It only says: The changing of the value could not be saved in the report.
