Description florianP 2011-02-15 14:15:24 UTC
Created attachment 43400 [details]
clean and corrupted otd files, with its template and a text.odt

I think the meta information in my odp file is deleted when using the odt file as an OLE object from writer.

How to reproduce : (zip file included)

 In writer Insert/Object/OLE Object
   create from file 'avec_modeleOK.odt' with LINK TO FILE
   OK
 Modify OLE object :
   double click on OLE
   scroll
   click elsewhere
 Save

Actual results :
 
  File avec_modeleOK.odp has been corrupted into avec_modelePASOK.odp :
    no meta.xml when unzipping the file
    when opened in impress, File/properties : no more link to the template.


Version used :
