------- Additional comments from hennerdre...@openoffice.org Tue Feb 24 13:37:50 +0000 2009 ------- Actually, you could also describe the problem from another perspective: If you insert a picture from file, you have the option to link or embed the picture. (link checkbox in filepicker). With movie files or plugins, you don't have this option, the file is always linked, but this is not indicated to the user in any way. A picture in writer has the Picture... item in its context menu, and it is possible to edit the file link there. In Draw/Impress this option is also missing for pictures; still you have the possibility to edit the link via Edit, Links. For plugin / media shapes, there is no option to edit the file link. Ideally, all object types should provide the same options: 1. Provide the option to be embedded or linked. 2. Linked files should be listed in Edit, Links 3. The context menu of the object should have some "Properties" item, which should provide a way to change a file link. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
