Regina suggested adding a section on image maps to the Calc Guide
chapter on graphics, and I had a note to myself to do the same with
the Writer Guide. AFAIK, the only book with a section on image maps is
the Impress Guide, and it doesn't say much more than the Help does.
The only context in which I have used image maps is on web pages (the
old OOoAuthors website had one as its home page), and I know how to
use Writer to creat one to use for that purpose.
However, I've never used an image map from within an OOo document. I
can see situations where I might use one from within a presentation
(to jump to other slides or other files), but I can't immediately
think of how I might use one within a spreadsheet or a text document.
Can someone help by giving me some examples of use?
My next question is about creating the hyperlinks from an image map to
another place within the same spreadsheet or text document. The Help
says: If you want to jump to a named anchor within the current
document, the address should be of the form
“file:///C/[current_document_name]#anchor_name”.
I know what an anchor is in an HTML document, but I don't know what it
would be in a spreadsheet or text document. In a spreadsheet, is the
anchor a cell reference, or a named range, or something else? Can
someone give me a specific example of an address in the form above?
And how about text (Writer) documents? And in Impress, would the
"anchor name" be a slide number, or what?
Thanks for any help you can give me. A pointer to a tutorial on this
topic would be fine for starters, if there is such a tutorial.
