System: Fedora 22 64 bti xfce LibreOffice 5.0.1.2 81898c9f5c0d43f3473ba111d7b351050be20261 Steps to reply: - Open new text document - Select "Styles and Formatting" in the sidebar - Select Load Styles | From File Actual result: In the dialog you can only select ODF (and template) files and OpenOffice.org 1.0 (and template) files. Expected result: In addition to ODF and OpenOffice.org 1.0 formats to load styles from master documents (and templates). Cheers
Hi Bastián, For me it works if I simply type the file name in the box... Could you please try that? But i think we can agree that it would be better if Master documents were listed in the File types list? Cheers - Cor

I think that would help a lot. Thanks for your time.
thanks for your help too!
Migrating Whiteboard tags to Keywords: (needsDevEval) [NinjaEdit]
Reproduced in Version: 7.2.0.0.alpha0+ (x64) NB. "Master Templates" are shown in the Load Styles dialog box. No problem if one wants to load styles from a master template. The problem and the point of this "bug" is that when you want to load styles from a master template that is not shown in the Template Manager, then the file picker does not give "ODF Master Document Template (.otm)" as an option for "File Type"-- so you have to know the workaround (comment 1) to start typing the filename of the master document. Additional Information: Same problem arises with "Import Template" from Template Manager, .otm is not included in the "File Types" Adding UXEval to see if this can be listed as an EasyHack.

Michael, is it?
i dont see any reason to prevent master documents for Load Styles. is the CXML check really the problem? because: filter/source/config/fragments/filters/writerglobal8.xcu: <prop oor:name="UserData"><value>CXML</value></prop> filter/source/config/fragments/filters/writerglobal8_template.xcu: <prop oor:name="UserData"><value>CXMLV</value></prop> filter/source/config/fragments/filters/writerglobal8_writer.xcu: <prop oor:name="UserData"><value>CXML</value></prop>
