Description: After saving a content control field combo box to DOCX in LibreOffice, the placeholder text goes away. It will be no longer visible in MS Word after selecting/unselecting the combo box. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Copy a combo box content control field from a DOCX file to LibreOffice. As a sample, you can go to page 4 of attachment 182846 [details], and copy a content control field combo box. 2. Save it as DOCX. As a shortcut, you can use attachment 187266 [details] instead of step 1 and 2. 3. Open the file in Microsoft Word. 4. Select and unselect the combo box. Actual Results: The placeholder text goes away after select/unselect. This breaks compatibility between LibreOffice and MSO. Expected Results: The placeholder text should remain after select/unselect.
