Bug ID: 153396
Summary: LibreOffice Writer: Bibliography reference: Link to
bibliography entry, not associated URL address
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 7.5.0.3 release
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: enhancement
Priority: medium
Component: Writer
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Description:
Hi, I noticed that when making a bibliography reference using Insert>Table of
Content and Index>Bibliography Entry, the reference is turned into a link to
the URL address associated with the entry when exported to pdf. I can
understand that someone might find that useful, but it means that when someone
wants to find what I'm refering to, they have to manually scroll to the
bibliogrpahy section and find the correct number. Making the reference a link
to the entry in the bibliography is so much more useful, I'm actually not sure
if this isn't a bug.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Make a bibliography reference that contains an URL address
2. Export to PDF
3. Click the reference: it will take you to the given URL site
Actual Results:
You are taken to the URL.
Expected Results:
Being taken to the bibliography table, where one can read the entry and choose
to visit the URL only if they want to.
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: No
Additional Info:
Having the reference database work on the references stored in the document
would be really nice, but this currently seems like a much bigger issue.
