Hello,
we are considering using OnlyOffice to collaborate on our reports.
We strongly use MS Word “Fields” to define strings of text that we need to have in several locations in our documents, we can edit those fields once in “Quick Parts/Field…” and see the new value everywhere in the document.
I notice that OnlyOffice doesn’t have that feature. If I open a docx document created in MS Office containing such Fields they will be displayed in OnlyOFFICE but it’s not attached to a single variable, like OnlyOffice ignores those Fields defined in the docx headers. I can right-click on the text and hit “Refresh field” but OnlyOffice replaces the text with “!!! can’t find field”. Although other that that right-click menu item, I see no menu item leading to the fields editor.
Why is that? Is it a missing feature? Is there a workaround to define a small piece of text in one place and repeat it to several places in the document?
