In case it matters, I'm using: - SuSE Linux 8.2, - OO.org SuSE 8.2 Rpms (http://packman.links2linux.org/?action=360) I'll also attach a testcase OODraw file with only one picture "inserted" using DnD from konqueror. Created attachment 11923 [details]
Testcase - Swx file with a jpg file "included" using dnd from konqueror
You can use Edit/link/break link to remove the link to the graphic. Normally it should be possible to insert pictures directly using D'n'D and the CTRL-key. There is a "+"-sign near the cursor when dragging but still the picture is inserted as a link what is a bug. Reassigned to Christian. Please have alook. > You can use Edit/link/break link to remove the link to the graphic.

I get a link to the picture if I use: - Drag and Drop - Drag and Drop + Ctrl - Copy (konqueror) / Paste (OOoDraw) In OOWriter all of this actually insert the picture. Any special reason why we should need press control? Doesn't really seem intuitive... Shouldn't DnD be enough? I also find strange losing the pictures when I move the documents to another dir... the links do not appear to be relative, so they should work no matter where I store the documents in my account as long as the pics are accessible, right? > Reassigned to Christian. Please have a look. Thanks again, J.A. indeed using ctrl doesn't work, I will investigate this Thanks! I'd like to stress though that even if it worked using ctrl I'd still find it incorrect for many reasons. - it would not be consistent with OOo Writer which actually inserts picture with DnD, DnD+Ctrl. Consistency is important. - there should be some feedback when creating a link to pictures insted of inserting it, otherwise he might do it by mistake without beeing aware of it. - there should be no need to use ctrl, simple DnD should insert the picture, so should copy/paste. IMO a nice way to manage inserting pictures would be: Copy/Paste : insert picture DnD : insert picture Ctrl+DnD : small menu with both options, insert picture/create link to picture J.A. Any progress on this issue? I sometimes forget about it, which leads to broken files (because of the missing images). IMO the default action should always be the safe one, e.g. including instead of linking. Thanks anyway, OOo is great. Reset assigne to the default "issues@openoffice.apache.org". |
