Ok for the backport, but I'm really not sure about mentioning the Ctrl+shift+F4 in the error message > > Would be good if we could name the dialog title to 'Toggle References' or > something like that. +1 > > @Maxim: Can we extend ScDocShell::ErrorMessage() so that we can not only > display text in the dialog but also the dialog title, just like we have in > LO Basic > https://help.libreoffice.org/Basic/MsgBox_Statement_Runtime - Sophie -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
