Bug ID: 150873 Summary: Links / URLs to document aliases don't seem to work (MacOS). Product: LibreOffice Version: 7.3.5.2 release Hardware: All OS: macOS (All) Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: medium Component: LibreOffice Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org Reporter: thms.mae...@gmail.com Description: Creating a link to a document works fine in LO for MacOS, but, in the case of aliases, ends up failing and opening the Terminal application instead. The alias file should be simply passed to the Finder which will resolve it and open the original document. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Take any file (PDF, LO, JPEG) & make a MacOS alias to it. 2. In LO (Writer, Calc, …), make a document link to the alias (One needs to change the name manually, as using the file selection dialog will choose the original file). 3. Click on the link to open the file Actual Results: Instead of opening the file referred to by the alias, the Terminal application is somehow opened instead, and the alias is not activated. Expected Results: The alias should be processed as when opening it in the MacOS Finder: the original file referred by it is opened. Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: No Additional Info: An Applescript command (tell app Finder to open…) will handle aliases correctly, because the system will resolve the alias and then choose the right application to open the file. Somehow, this works for direct document links in LO, but not for aliases, which are handled differently, ending up opening the Terminal application for some reason. Aliases should be simply passed to the Finder, which is able to resolve them.
