            Bug ID: 119157
           Summary: After Modifying A Writer Template, Document Doesn't
                    Ask To Update Styles When Opened
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.0.4.2 release
          Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
                OS: Windows (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org

Description:
As per the "WG60-Writer Guide" (Chapter 10 - Working with Templates | Page
219):

---------------------------------------------
Updating a document from a changed template:

If you make any changes to a template and its styles, the next time you open a
document that was created from the template before the changes, a confirmation
message is displayed. 

To update the document: 

1) Select "Update Styles" to apply the changed styles in the template to the
document. 

2) Select "Keep Old Styles" if you do not want to apply the changed styles in
the template to the document (but see the Caution notice below)…

---------------------------------------------

However this isn't working.  If I update a template and open a document that
was created with that template, I don't see any message to choose whether to
either 'Update Styles' or 'Keep Old Styles'.  It was working in LibreOffice
5.4, but somewhere in the 6.0 cycle is has stopped working.  


Steps to Reproduce:
To Reproduce:

1) Open a blank LibreOffice Writer document

2) Go To File > Templates > Save as Template, and save it as 'Test'.  Close the
document.

3) From the LibreOffice StartPage, go to Templates and open the 'Test' template
we created

4) Type some text, then press CTRL + 0 to assign a 'Text Body' Paragraph Style
to it.  Save the document as a *.odt and close LibreOffice.

5) Open LibreOffice.  From the LibreOffice StartPage, go to Templates,
right-click the 'Test' template and go to Edit.

6) In the Writer Sidebar, find the 'Text Body' Paragraph Style, right-click it
and select Modify.  Change the font to say 24pt, click OK, save the template,
close the template.  Close LibreOffice.

7) Open the document we saved in Step 4.  There should be a message saying the
template has been updated and asking whether we want to 'Update Styles' or
'Keep Old Styles', however no message appears.


Actual Results:
No message appears when opening the document to say that the template has been
updated and asking whether to 'Update Styles' or 'Keep Old Styles'

Expected Results:
When opening the document, there should be a message saying the template has
been updated and asking whether we want to 'Update Styles' or 'Keep Old Styles'


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: Yes
