Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 108195
A lot of error messages in Picture->Macro (Java disabled)
Last modified: 2011-03-31 11:35:20 UTC
I have inserted and selected picture in OO Writer. I open Picture dialog (menu->format->picture) and select he tab Macro. The I will get a lot of (exactly 16) error messages with title "Required JRE" and text "OO.org requires Java runtime environment. Please install JRE and run OO again." I have not installed Java, so error message is right at this place. But I expect only one error message, not 16! Whem I go to options->Java and uncheck "Use Java runtime environment" and then again do the same with the picture, I get a lot of simillar error messages: "JRE is not enabled. Do you want to enable it?"
@JSK: similar to issue 80878. - Tools - Options - Java - Use a Java Runtime environnement -> OFF - In Writer - Insert a picture - go to Format - Picture - Macro -> you get 16 Warnings about missing Java. As the dialog contains "Enable Java Now [Yes][No][Cancel]" one can expect one of the button [No] or [Cancel] to act like "never ask again". Hence: need a redesign of the warning. In a perfect world...: every function requiring Java while Java has been disabled using "never ask again" should be disabled itself (grayed out) and show a warning (tooltip) telling the user how to enable this function again. As this is a general mis-behavior of the Java warning (ex.: same question again and again on File - Wizard -...) I set OF on CC.
