Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 77905
RPT: "Link" checkbox in Insert/Graphics dialog should be checked (though disabled)
Last modified: 2009-07-19 20:16:54 UTC
This describes an intermediate solution for issue 77831. Currently, we don't have a clear concept for whether or not to embed images into reports. The user can insert image controls, but the images are always linked, i.e. the report only refers (by URL) to the image. As soon as the database document (and thus the report) is moved to another machine, the image is most likely broken. To at least minimally relax the problem, we need to ensure that the user has, at the moment she inserts the graphic, the possibility to notice that this is a *linked* graphics only. For this, we need to ensure that the "Link" checkbox in the Insert/Graphics dialog is always checked. Currently (build 0.2.0.20070524) the check state of this box is the same as in the previous incarnation of the dialog, even when invoked from other applications. I.e.: - open a write - do a Insert/Graphics/From File - in the Insert/Graphics dialog, uncheck (or check) the "Link" box, select any graphics, and press the OK button - in a report designer, do Insert/Graphics/From File => the "Link" box is unchecked (or checked), depending on what you did in its previous incarnation. It should always be checked.
The Report Designer iTeam decided that this issue is a show stopper for the release of the report designer. Targeting to 2.3, thus.
