Description marc.neumann 2003-09-04 14:50:38 UTC 
- insert a checkbox into a writer document
- turn off design view
- check the checkbox
- turn on the designview 
==>> the check state is gone.

LHO: The content or state of any field must not be reset automatically
when switching to or from design mode. To reset a form to the
defaults, a new button ("Reset Form Fields") in the form functions
tool bar needs to be introduced.
Comment 2 Frank Schönheit 2003-09-05 08:27:51 UTC 
I am not sure why this feature of resetting the form when switching
the mode was introduced, but I know that
- it was a long time ago
- it's caused us permanently trouble
- it's probably obsolete right now
So unless I can't find any reasons to keep this behaviour, I'm going
to implement this as proposed by LHO.

Nevertheless, I'm changing the type to ENHANCEMENT. There was a reason
for doing it as it's done now (even if nobody knows it anymore), and
the fact that the behaviour yields an usability issue does not
automatically qualify it as DEFECT, IMO.
Comment 3 Frank Schönheit 2003-12-08 13:37:18 UTC 
no a reset is only made when entering the design mode, for controls which belong
to a database which which was loaded (i.e. bound to some table/query/SQL
statement) in alive mode. This prevents that for database forms, the user
switches on the design mode with the UI suggesting that *nothing* happened.
