Description danstrome 2002-07-15 02:57:37 UTC
For text documents containing Input fields
(Insert > Fields > Other > Functions tab > Input field):

When the user clicks on an Input field in a
text document and the Edit dialog box appears,
the Reference text or Prompt text appears
in the upper white edit field and looks like it can
be edited.  It would be better if it appeared
on a plain gray field as a regular label,
or grayed-out in a white field,
so the user knows that the only editable area 
is the input text box below.

Summary: The upper box in the 'Edit Field' dialog seems to be
editable, if no reference-text was entered before, although it is not
intended as an Input-Field in that dialog. This needs to be changed by
adding e.g. other fixtext then 'Edit' in that dialog or another
display of the field. As dialog changes are not defined keyfeatures
for OO.o 2.0, this one is considered for 'Office later'.

To grep the issues easier via "requirements" I put the issues currently lying on
my owner to the owner "requirements".
