Bug ID: 171469
Summary: Documentation for using Impress Remote is outdated in
Help pages
Product: LibreOffice
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Impress
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
While, trying to figure out why I couldn't get Impress Remote to work, I
noticed that the Help entry which is linked to from the SlideShow menu, Impress
Remote entry, Help button is out of date and shows misleading information.
In my case clicking the help button leads to:
https://help.libreoffice.org/24.2/en-US/text/simpress/01/remoteconnections.html?System=UNIX&DbPAR=IMPRESS&HID=modules/simpress/ui/remotedialog/frame1#@@nowidget@@
This mentions UI options that don't exist anymore (i.e. have been moved
elsewhere), leading to quite some confusion in the community (e.g.
https://ask.libreoffice.org/t/presentation-by-remote-is-not-enabled-in-impress/110618)
and bad reviews in app stores (e.g.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.libreoffice.impressremote)
The website https://www.libreoffice.org/download/impress-remote-2/ points to
the wiki entry
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Documentation/HowTo/Impress_Remote_(Android)#Prerequisites
which finally gives the correct instructions.
