Re: [libreoffice-users] Unwanted Alternative Image Names

[gordon cooper]

Hi Regina and Philip,

  Thanks for the replies, I now know 
where to look.

MX is based on Debian and has similarities to Ubuntu.  Did scan through
/usr/share/Libre Office/  without success but will try again. Also see that
a bug report has gone.

Regards,
Gordon.

Am not familiar with LO 6.0., presently working in 5.2.6.2 which is the
version currently available from the repositories for MX-Linux, the OS
that is described in the Manual currently being edited and displaying
of our Alternative Name problem.


The version doesn't matter. It is an old bug, inherited from OpenOffice.



I will attend to the bug report.


I have written a bug report for it. It is

It looks like an error in the XHTML filter. Using an old version of 
the filter, I see both the caption text and the alternative text of 
the picture. Using a new version of the filter (here developer version 
LO 6.0), I see only the alternative text of the picture and no caption 
text at all.


Please write a bug report for the problem.

It is possible to fix the bug without compiling the LO sources. You 
can edit the filter directly. You find the filter in folder>/share/XSLT/export/xhtml. The part body.xsl is relevant here. 
Do you know someone with knowledge in XSLT?

Re: [libreoffice-users] Unwanted Alternative Image Names (Resolved)

[gordon cooper]

Eureka!!  Many Thanks Robert, that is the clue. The Alternative names 
appeared
because a draft .odt file was created by a copy and paste from an html 
file which
itself was a conversion from Lyx.  The problem is hopefully a "once 
only" but for the
archives and benefit of anyone who may meet this in the future, here is 
a summary.


1. Any text appearing in Libre Office Image 
Properties>Options>Alternative Name does
not appear on screen in a displayed .odt , but will be shown as a 
screen shot, and in a
printed copy, as an image caption in an html export from that .odt 
file.


2. Images inserted into a Libre Office .odt file will not usually create 
an Alternative name,
but if the .odt file has been created by copy and paste from an 
html source, the file
reference for any images in the html (not sure about tables) may be 
saved as an

Alternative name to then appear in an html export.

This situation is unlikely to occur in normal Libre Office usage.

Thanks again Robert,

Gordon.

Re: [libreoffice-users] Unwanted Alternative Image Names

[Steve Edmonds]

Hi Gordon.
The CSS styling in my tables was incorrect and text alignment in merged 
cells was non-existent.
Is there a pattern to the formatting of the unwanted text, could you use 
sed to remove it.

whole file. Have also had to look at table properties to ensure that 
framing lines
appeared in the html.  HTML also has an advantage in that some 
software language
translation programmes, e.g. Googletranslate,  will preserve the 
formatting, even

if some of the phrasing and syntax needs correcting.

Is the HTML format satisfactory in all other aspects for your needs.
I had to correct the HTML in tables exported by writer so am now wary

How do the users copy to html? Using the LO menu "Save as"? or 
selectng, then "Edition>Copy" .?

From my experience,
   I would say you've uncovered a 'bug' since the name of 
the image

should only appear if the image cannot for some reason.

Here's hoping you can find a solution anon,

We are using Libre Office in the writing of technical manuals
where some users make html copies.

Finding that the file names of images are being displayed
beside or below the images in the html versions. Because
all images are given a caption, we do not want the file names too.

  I can remove them by going to each image Properties>Options
and deleting one at a time but this is time consuming when there are
many images - over 100 in one manual.  Is there a setting that can
automatically prevent the file names being displayed?

Have looked through the Help but found nothing, did I overlook it?
