Description GroovieMan 2024-01-15 07:16:53 UTC

I am trying to write a document with libreoffice-writer, in order to create a pdf document with embedded hyperlinks, that contains hyperlinks like this:

   file:///document/.../sheet.ods#tabname!E12   

Later, the created document will be saved on a cdrom or usb-stick. The end-user will open this device and can open PDF and will also be able to use the links, in order to jump to the target document.

When i put these hyperlinks into a table inside my document, the contents of the table gets messed up. Part of the cells will be deleted or overwritten with other crippeld cells. Your document becomes unsusable.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.create a odt docuemnt and insert a table
2.put hyperlinks into a row of cells that use the following format file:///document/.../sheet.ods#tabname!E12
3.continue to insert hyperlinks and wait a bit to see how your document gets messed up
Actual Results:  
The documente becomes broken. 

Expected Results:  
I expect a stabled office applicaiton!

sorry i meant libreoffice

Comment 2 GroovieMan 2024-01-15 07:34:48 UTC

I copied the error decription into the libreoffice bugzilla too

Comment 3 Ville-Pekka Vainio 2024-01-17 21:15:01 UTC

I wasn't able to find a LibreOffice bug report about this, so I'll reassign this one.

Comment 6 Mattia Verga 2024-01-18 16:46:44 UTC

I can't reproduce the problem. I've created a 8x3 table filled with hyperlinks and I do not see errors. Maybe I'm missing some steps...

This message is a reminder that Fedora Linux 39 is nearing its end of life.
Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora Linux 39 on 2024-11-26.
It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer
maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a
'version' of '39'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora Linux version. Note that the version field may be hidden.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not 
able to fix it before Fedora Linux 39 is end of life. If you would still like 
to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version 
of Fedora Linux, you are encouraged to change the 'version' to a later version
prior to this bug being closed.

field may be hidden. Click the "Show advanced fields" button if you do not see
