When a file is derived from a template then auto-updating at file opening doesn't update table styles. Also with the Load Styles dialog that is accessible via sidebar > styles > load styles... the table styles aren't updated. Table styles can't be selected with the check boxes in Load Styles dialog. Tested with Version: 6.1.0.0.alpha0+ (x64) Build ID: a097077e1f3d433ab7cbc84c408c96f9adce1534 CPU threads: 8; OS: Windows 10.0; UI render: GL; TinderBox: Win-x86_64@42, Branch:master, Time: 2018-02-13_23:00:22
Currently, table styles in Writer is just a style which can not be edited. Those are pre-defined styles, and you can only use it, not changing it. Thus, this is not a bug in my opinion.
Sorry, but if an issue isn't fixable until another issue on which it is depending is fixed (here: possibility to modify table styles) is no reason to close it. There are some bugs in the code that depend on another bugs. And this issue isn't only true when modifying table styles but also for loading table styles of other documents into the current document. Loading of styles is actually working.
Then it's an enhancement request.
Kevin, if you add the keyword needsUXEval you should add libreoffice-ux-advise@lists.freedesktop.org to the cc-list.
Understand it as rather a bug. Table styles are supposed to be consistent over documents and if that's not working with template it's a bug. But anyway, I don't see a reason for input from UX (beyond the scope). PS: An example would be nice.
Created attachment 141054 [details] Test Writer file no. 1
Created attachment 141055 [details] Test Writer file no. 2 Steps to reproduce: ------------------- 1. Open file no. 1. 2. Open Sidebar, click onto the rightmost button and choose "Load Styles..." in the drop-down menu. 3. Activate all checkboxes (Table styles are missing). 4. Click "From File...". 5. Select file no. 2 and open it. Actual result: -------------- Paragraph style 'heading 1' and 'text body', character style 'strong emphasis', frame style 'graphics', page style 'left page' and list style 'numbering 123' all are imported correctly. Table style 'Bug-115754' isn't overwritten. (But it will be imported if the steps above are done in a new file.) Expected result: ---------------- Also table styles are imported and overwrite existing styles with identical names.
