Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 9479
hyperlink can not be removed by hyperlink dialogue
Last modified: 2013-08-07 15:31:14 UTC
I read the issues 6975,7749 and 7311. I don't think that << 1. Select the text. 2. Right click and select the option "Character" 3. Choose the "Hyperlink" tab. >> is a natural way to use for removing a hyperlink. I found this way by searching in oo issues because I wanted to say that we could not suppress an hyperlink. My opinion: - Hyperlink should not be linked (for end-user) to a characters but instead to a group of characters. - Why selecting the text ? Right clicking on the link isn't enought ? I propose a more natural way. Right click on the hyperlink text. Then you get an 'hyperlink' entry because text you were on was a hyperlink. Selecting the entry open a dialog box which allows to suppress the link. I put a relative high priority for this issue because I can't export proper RTF with hyperlink. Micro$oft Word 97 writes on the place of the text of the link: "Erreur! Référence de lien hypertexte non valide"

Please try using the latest OOo 1.1 Rc4, Your version already old enough, and many bug fixes since your version and 1.1 RC4. If the problem still happend in 1.1 RC4 please report back
I agree, removing a hyperlink actually is not a "natural" way. Additionally, no one will understand why it is impossible to remove a hyperlink from some text by using the hyperlink dialog, as I tied: 1. mark text with hyperlink 2. click OOo-button "Hyperlink dialogue" 3. delete hyperlink target 4. "Apply" and OK Expected: Hyperlink will be removed from Text Actual: not removed Same with rightclick "Characters": 11. mark text with hyperlink 12. rightclick, "Characters", card "Hyperlink" 13. delete hyperlink URL 14. "Apply" and OK Expected: Hyperlink will be removed from Text Actual: as expected So: NEW, but it is not so very important, so P4 It is a DEFECT if it is not possible to delete a hyperlink in the special hyperlink dialog (see steps 1. to 4.), so --> DEFECT and TM 2.0 Reporter, I can not reproduce your "error-problem" with 1.1.0 German version WIN98SE: 645m19(Build8693). Because we can only handle one bug per issue, we will ignore this problem here. If the bug still exists for you with OOo 1.1.0 , please open a new issue for "Erreur! Référence de lien hypertexte non valide" - problem. Utomo, _please_ stop that stereotype "please try latest version ...." commenting. This is a truism and not helful at all for issuese which can be reproduced easily like this one. Rainer
Added myself to CC
This is a DUP of issue 7311 *** This issue has been marked as a duplicate of 7311 ***
close issue.
As issue 7311 handled the context menu I'm reopening this one for the dialog. Component changed to framework as it applies to all modules supporting hyperlinks
Currently, how to detach an hyperlink from the text ?
As os has written: there's a new feature: "remove hyperlink" in context menu of a hyperlink
Changed the owner to 'requirements'.
I think this feature has now a lower priority since we can now remove the hyperlink from the contextual menu. However, I didn't see the way to remove the link from the menu bar. We should be able to remove the hyperlink: - either from the hyperlink dialog - or from the menu bar.
Pls. see Issue 22133!
