Hi Transfering suggestion from bugzilla [1]
--------8<-------------- I don't know how to request additional/change to existing documentation, but allow me to suggest it here please: Request a paragraph or note added to either Writers Guide 6.0 (existing) Note page 78, or Getting Started Guide 6.0 (existing) Note/Tip page 338; at the end of one of those Note(s) something like: “Also, if relative links are enabled (via the menu Tools > Options > Load/Save > General, e.g. with only “save URLs relative to the local file system” checkbox checked) be advised that if the file is saved to a different location than it was originally saved to: The file save operation will automatically attempt to retain the original destination for all the (document file) links, and that save operation will change all the original relative links into absolute URL links. This is expected design behavior and it is not unique to LibreOffice. If any of the links are “Web” or internet links, then LibreOffice will not try to change them, as they were not relative links to begin with. So if you desire to retain relative paths in the document for hyperlinks to other files: first save the document then copy and paste the document (along with the linked files & path) to the new location/directory. That will ensure that the “save to new location” behavior does not change the relative hyperlink destinations into absolute URLs for the LibreOffice document when the document will be opened in a different path/directory.” --------8<-------------- [1] https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=127307#c6 -- Olivier Hallot LibreOffice Documentation Coordinator Comunidade LibreOffice Rio de Janeiro - Brasil - Local Time: UTC-03:00 http://tdf.io/joinus -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: [email protected] Problems? https://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: https://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/documentation/ Privacy Policy: https://www.documentfoundation.org/privacy
