Bug ID: 148482 Summary: When pasting requires fetching remote content, ask for permission Product: LibreOffice Version: Inherited From OOo Hardware: All OS: All Status: UNCONFIRMED Keywords: needsUXEval Severity: normal Priority: medium Component: Writer Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org Reporter: eyalr...@gmx.com Sometimes, pasting content from the clipboard requires fetching content from the network. I don't quite understand how this makes sense, but apparently it happens (see, for example, 148407 regarding the pasting of content copied from a web-browser). A user may not be interested in having the content fetched at all; or they may want the content fetched and the link broken; or they may want both the remote content and the linkage to the remote source. LO (or at least, LO Writer) should offer a dialog in which the user confirms wishing to fetch remote content, where if they don't confirm, either the paste is aborted, or occurs with no fetching (e.g empty background or placeholder image or what-not). Alternatively, the dialog could make the user choose between the three options. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
