Can't open OTT files currently (see bug 99738). *Tentatively* moving this into NEW as editing OTT files on Android should work. Hopefully when 99738 is fixed, this bug will disappear and we'll get a 2-for-1 deal.

Comment 6 Michael Weghorn 2021-04-16 06:57:57 UTC
With the commit from comment 5 (and various parent commits), the "Save" menu entry is now disabled when opening templates. The recently introduced "Save As..." entry can be used to save the new document created from the template.
