Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 81238
function NOW() doesn't set document to modified on opening
Last modified: 2013-08-07 15:12:27 UTC
When a spreadsheet is opened, the function NOW() is recalculated, but the document status in not set to modified. Only when the result of NOW() is used in a chart, modified is set. (Follow up of issue #77463)
Hi, are you sure you want the NOW() function to set the dirty flag every time a recalculation is made, even if nothing else changed ? I think it's a bit inconvenient. But let's UX decide as it works as designed now. Frank
@ Frank, No of course I would not be happy. But ja writes in i77463, that it is by design, that a Now(), that causes charts to change on opening, sets the document to modified. Thus I think it should be one of both: Now() makes the document become modified on opening in both situations, or not. Therefore I gave this issue the status Defect ;-)
should this question be brought to a list (which one) for discussion?
Hi. Is this inconsistent behavior that we should look at?
definitely ;-)
