            Bug ID: 83142
          Assignee: [email protected]
           Summary: EDITING: Link to inserted Draw object ignored
          Severity: normal
    Classification: Unclassified
                OS: Linux (All)
          Reporter: [email protected]
          Hardware: Other
        Whiteboard: BSA
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
           Version: 4.2.4.2 release
         Component: Writer
           Product: LibreOffice

When inserting a Draw object as a link into a document, the link is ignored and
the whole object is inserted:

1. Open the Draw program
2. Draw a line
3. Save as "testfile.odg"
4. Open the Writer program
5. Menu Insert -> Object -> OLE Object...
6. Select "Create from file", activate "Link to file", select created
testfile.odg
7. Save document as "testdoc.fodt" in flat file format
8. Take a look at testdoc.fodt (with cat, less, editor...)

Current behavior:

The Draw object is not inserted as a link, but as a whole. There is no
"testfile" string in the file.

Expected behavior:

The document should only contain a pointer to the testfile.odg, not the object
itself.

When saving the drawing in flat file format, too, it does not change the
behaviour.

Strange that this happens, as i have definitely seen it already working, but i
don't know if it was the same version.


Operating System: Ubuntu
Version: 4.2.4.2 release
