            Bug ID: 128510
           Summary: Opening a template file should be possible using the
                    iOS app
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: Other
                OS: iOS
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: medium
         Component: iOS
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org

Description:
Template files like *.ott, *.dotx, *.xltx, etc. can not be opened using the iOS
app.

Discussing this topic with others revealed that it's not trivial to figure out
what the right thing to do is.

MS Word on iOS does the following: it opens a file and shows a banner that
says, that the file is read only and it offers a "save a copy" button. After
saving the document Word will go into "edit" mode.

We have plenty of users with template files and can't put them all into the
template manager the iOS app offers - we therefore look for a simple solution
to male those templates usable. Any good idea how to handle them?

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Try to open a template file such as an *.ott or *.dotx using the iOS app

Actual Results:
It's not possible to open them.

Expected Results:
It should be possible to open them and create a writable copy of the initial
file but the initial (template) file should not be changed.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No
