Priority: medium
Bug ID: 73045
Assignee: [email protected]
Summary: image from clipboard cannot be pasted in Writer (URI
format is wrong, with forward slash)
Severity: major
Classification: Unclassified
OS: Windows (All)
Reporter: [email protected]
Hardware: Other
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Version: 4.2.0.1 rc
Component: Writer
Product: LibreOffice
I take screenshots using Greenshot.
I can paste the image from clipboard in Impress and Draw.
But if I paste the clipboard content into Writer, the image is missing: It
shows only a placeholder.
I traced the problem: The root cause is that the URI contains three FORWARD
slashes, not BACK-slashes as required in Windows.
Here is a sample URI: file:///C:Users\njaras\AppDataLocal\Temp\gfukOrcd.1lk.png
If I manually correct the slashes, the image gets inserted normally.
Steps to do this:
1. Double-clicking on the placeholder
2. A "Picture" window pops up. Click on its "Picture" tab.
3. In the "Link" section, the URI of the temporary file is listed.
4. Edit the URI and replace /// with \\\
5. Press OK. The image is inserted in the file now.
Conclusion: Both Impress and Draw create the URI correctly.
Please correct the URI format in Writer.
