Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 82466
Reference text has disappeared in input fields
Last modified: 2013-08-07 14:42:49 UTC
Although not using OOo 2.3 I decided to create this issue because of several complaints, both in english and french forums. Main reference in english : http://www.oooforum.org/forum/viewtopic.phtml?t=62500 Description: The user has created templates with input fields, which have to be filled for a new document. When you use templates already created and used in a previous version, the reference text does not appear in OOo 2.3.0. The "reference text" is the upper field in each of the input field dialogs. Next attachment is a template example taken from the forum thread I mentionned.

Just to clarify this issue, this is an Input Field created from a User Field on the Variables tab. An Input Field created from a Set Variable or an Input Field created from the Function tab work as they should. Also the disappearance of the Reference text happens with a document created in version 2.3 as well as prior versions but if the 2.3 document is opened in a prior version then Reference text will show.
->hbrinkm: In your fix of internal 144146 in file xmloff/source/text/txtvfldi.cxx the bDescription/bIsDescription has been changed from true to false (around line 569). That results in an unset reference around line 302.
I wish to confirm the same issue of no reference labels being associated with input fields. This is a serious issue severely limiting the usability of OpenOffice templates
