Second, - I have not tested - LO may warn me that my legacy documentshave new default template and ask for an update. If this is true, this will be a shoot in the head of document preservation.That's an interesting (theoretical) problem – can you test, please, though? My logic says, this shouldn't happen, also, the styles are usually embedded within the document.Nothing will happen to our current documents since none of them are based on the Avantgarde.ott template. Though if we want to make any changes to Avantgarde.ott templates later and keep the name and location of the template - then the user will get a question if he/she wants to update the styles. We need to avoid that.
Yes that is what I'm thinking... I just didn't know it was restricted to template name and not the "default" template.
Hmm... Interesting, it seems that it does not even have to be in the same location just in one of the installed paths or set as default template. I have no idea what happens if we change one of the "built in styles" which is the long term goal as I understand it.
The only attributes you can change on the built-in styles are in Tools - Options - Writer - Basic fonts. When changing them, all new documents based on the default template will carry the changes. If we offer Avantgarde.ott as one document template (among others), that is ok for me. To offer it as default template is another story.
