please send me some pointers to the incorrect Help pages.

On the page titled "Movie and Sound" in the Impress Help is this:

---------
To play a movie or sound file in an Impress presentation
1.Open the slide that contains the movie or sound file.
2.Click the object icon for the movie or sound file on the slide.
3.Click Play on the Media Playback toolbar.
---------

Is the help talking about previewing the movie or sound? IIRC, the preview works that way. But when showing a presentation, if I have used Insert > Movie and Sound, it starts playing immediately when the slide is opened. No need to click, and the Media Playback toolbar is not there.

If I used Insert > Object > Sound/Video, then there is an Object icon on the slide, but clicking on it does nothing.



Thank you, Jean, for this information. I copied this mail to my To-Do list. Will upgrade Help as soon as I know which is the expected behaviour and which is a current issue.
