------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Tue Jan 31 04:30:16 -0800 2006 ------- OS implied that a lack of specification for how the remove hyperlink should be implemented is a major reason why this issue will not be addressed until later. I've created a couple of mock ups that can be used as a starting point for discussion. I'm using OO v2.0.1 for Windows, for my examples. First, a screen shot of the present hyperlink dialog box: http://www.skunkwks.com/web/hidden/OOo/hyperlink_dialog_box_current.png Second, a "photoshopped" screen shot of the same dialog box with my proposal for a control to remove the hyperlink: http://www.skunkwks.com/web/hidden/OOo/hyperlink_dialog_box_proposed.png Deragon mentioned the right-click context menu--there is no way to get to the hyperlink dialog box via the context menu. I feel this is an oversight and suggest the following UI modifications. A screen shot of the present right-click context menu. Note, this is of a test document where I entered some URL-like text strings; OO "auto-corrected" some of these to add hyperlinks to them: http://www.skunkwks.com/web/hidden/OOo/rightclick_menu_current.png My proposal for a new right-click context menu: http://www.skunkwks.com/web/hidden/OOo/rightclick_menu_proposed.png Deragon did not suggest it, but I removed "Open Hyperlink". Every entry on the context menu modifies the document _except_ "Open Hyperlink", and left-clicking on the hyperlink opens the hyperlink, a far more preferable user action. As more is not always better, I suggest removal of the "Open Hyperlink" menu item. Additionally, there's a facility to modify hyperlinks within the Character dialog box. A hyperlink is a different beast than any of the other character modifications. Additionally, a hyperlink does not necessarily change the appearance of the character string (nor does it need to even contain a character string as a visual element). In an ideal world, hyperlink editing should _not_ be a part of the Character dialog box. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
