Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 23210
Hyperlink autorecognition never stops
Last modified: 2013-08-07 14:41:36 UTC
Steps: 1) Open new writer document, make sure Tools->Autocorrect/Autoformat->Options->URL Recognition is _ON_ 2) Type Http://www.macnn.com/kdkdkdkd;adfklja dflajkdf;j;;dfkjla <<< note the space, keep it 3) Hit return 4) start typing, URL autorecognition does not stop even on another line. 5) place cursor BEFORE the http:// 6) Hit return a couple times 7) place cursor at top of document 8) start typing, URL autorecogntion STILL is not off, even a few lines up from the http:// If you delete the entire text, URL recognition is _still_ on, but times out after about 30 seconds.
Another way to trigger it: 1) In a new document, type "here" 2) select the word "here" and hit the "Hyperlink Dialog" button the toolbar 3) Type in "http://www.google.com" for the "Target:" item 4) Hit Apply, then Close 5) place cursor behind the word "here" which should now be a hyperlink 6) Continue typing, its all a hyperlink 7) Hit return. Its all _still_ a hyperlink 8) Place cursor before "here' and hit return, try typing above it, still a hyperlink
Possible solution might be to be able to hit CTRL+Space or CTRL+Return to terminate the hyperlink

OOo handles hyperlinks like a character formatting (you can modify a hyperlink over "Format - Character - [Hyperlink]"). Thus it works like bold, underline, etc. To stop the hyperlink format, you can: - type the Right cursor key at the end of the line or - execute "Format - Standard" or - apply another charcter style or - select the next character and delete the hyperlink under "Format - Character - [Hyperlink]"
