Description wd1102 2020-02-16 15:08:04 UTC
Description:
when make changes in an .rtf text in LO Writer using recording changes, after saving and reopen the document, the text does not the same. For example I see numbers (9 characters) before that text where I changed the background color. So the recording changes function is unusable in rtf...

You can try it, because it "works" every time when:
open an .rtf document with LO Writer (or make one),
switch on function "recording changes",
make changes on the text, for example press enter to new line, change the background color somewhere,
save the file,
reopen the document.

Steps to Reproduce:
open an .rtf document with LO Writer (or make one),
switch on function "recording changes",
make changes on the text, for example press enter to new line, change the background color somewhere,
save the file,
reopen the document.

Actual Results:

Sample ODT

OO didn't save some formatting changes in RTF. LO 3.3 does it wrong, up to 7.0+. ImplementationError. 
Steps: open attached ODT and save as RTF. On reopen, see numbers before bold, italic, underline, highlighted text, instead of tracked changes.
I didn't find a duplicate (though hard to believe nobody noticed).

Dear wd1102,

To make sure we're focusing on the bugs that affect our users today, LibreOffice QA is asking bug reporters and confirmers to retest open, confirmed bugs which have not been touched for over a year.

There have been thousands of bug fixes and commits since anyone checked on this bug report. During that time, it's possible that the bug has been fixed, or the details of the problem have changed. We'd really appreciate your help in getting confirmation that the bug is still present.

If you have time, please do the following:

Test to see if the bug is still present with the latest version of LibreOffice from https://www.libreoffice.org/download/

If the bug is present, please leave a comment that includes the information from Help - About LibreOffice.
 
If the bug is NOT present, please set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED-WORKSFORME and leave a comment that includes the information from Help - About LibreOffice.

Please DO NOT

Update the version field
Reply via email (please reply directly on the bug tracker)
Set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED - FIXED (this status has a particular meaning that is not 
appropriate in this case)


If you want to do more to help you can test to see if your issue is a REGRESSION. To do so:
1. Download and install oldest version of LibreOffice (usually 3.3 unless your bug pertains to a feature added after 3.3) from https://downloadarchive.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/old/

2. Test your bug
3. Leave a comment with your results.
4a. If the bug was present with 3.3 - set version to 'inherited from OOo';
4b. If the bug was not present in 3.3 - add 'regression' to keyword

Warm Regards,
QA Team
