Description lo-bugzilla 2013-04-17 07:05:23 UTC
Problem description: 
- the (dynamic) reports created by report builder dont reflect the format changes in the Report template generated with report builder.
Results only have a (non-predictable) mix of Arial / Times new Roman font.

Steps to reproduce:
1. open a database 
2. create a dynamic report
3. execute the report, inspect generated .odt file
4. change font of data fields
5. repeate 3.


Current behavior:
No change of fonts in generated .odt Doc observed

Expected behavior:
.odt file reflects change (as I remember, this was functioning in 3.x versions)
              
Operating System: Mac OS X
Version: 4.0.2.2 release
Last worked in: 3.6.1.2 release

OS=All due to DUP

@Robert:
What do you think?
Comment 4 Robert Großkopf 2013-04-17 19:10:10 UTC
Could be a duplicate of https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=62147 . There is described, that the fonts in textfields are always shown in 
Times New Roman.
The description of this report isn't clear enough to decide, if it's a duplicate of this bug, which should be fixed in LO 4.0.3

yes, duplication very likely, but error unfortunately not fixed...:

 I have recently created a dynamic report with the demo database file "biblio" with the fields "Variable" and "Author" , both formatted with Arial round 15pt;

Only the Number reflects the format change, the text/string not - it stays at times new roman 11pt

Not yet (my basd knowledge is very basic), but let's see! 

Steps how to reproduce with server installation of "LibO  4.0.2.2 rc   -  German UI / German Locale  [Build ID: 4c82dcdd6efcd48b1d8bba66bfe1989deee49c3)]"  {tinderbox: @6, pull time  2013-03-26 12:00(?)} on German WIN7 Home Premium (64bit) with newly created own user profile:

0. Launch LibO
1. open new Writer document from LibO start center
2. <f4> for database manager
3. 'Right click on "Bibliography" -> Edit Database fil2'
   > biblio database dialog appears
4. 'Reports (Database pane)' -> Wizard'
    > Wizard Appeara
5. field selection: I added all fields
   <Next>
6. Next until "Decide how you want to proceed", leave selections 
   "Dynamic" and "Create report now" -> <Finish>
  > Writer document appears with some "heading line" with
    "Identifier - Type - Address ..." all in Arial bold 12 or similar
7. In Win Task pane select dialog as in step 3
8. 'RightClick "Biblio" (in Reports pane) -> Edit'
   > Report builder dialog appears
9. In "Detail" section click most left item "Identifier (=Identifier")" -> 
    Right click ->
   Properties'
   > Properties in "General" Tab appears
10. In "Font" property do a visible change, for example to "Courier New 6 pt"
11. Menu 'File -> Close -> Save'
    > Dialog disappears
12. In Database dialog - Reports pane double click "biblio" report
    > Writer document "biblio2.odt" appears
    Expected: "Identifier" Heading word now in "Courier New 6 pt"
    Actual: "Identifier" Arial 12, no difference to other heading items

Additional Info: 
----------------
I did that test also with 3.6.6.2, there in step 12 I saw first heading item in Courier New 6pt as expected.

@lo-bugzilla@warth-fn.de: 
Can you confirm that I described your problem?

@robert:
does the new description help you to check for  related bugs?

Smell like DUP of bug 62147 to me. Reopen if can be reproduced in 4.0.3 (or a libreoffice-4-0 daily).

lo-bugzilla@warth-fn.de: not exactly, in my case, the output data fields - not the headings - were described; I didnt test the behavior of the headings, but maybe the problem source is similar.
