           Summary: SLIDESHOW: Switching to browser through hyperlink
    Classification: Unclassified

A .pptx file containing slides with links to YouTube videos on slides 4, 19,
30, 45

Problem description: 
I am trying to adapt a PowerPoint presentation to Impress. The presentation has
a number of links to YouTube videos. In Impress, when I click a link, the
browser (Firefox) is started and the video plays, but the browser window is not
displayed: the screen still shows the Impress slide. I can switch the display
from Impress to the browser window (and back again once it has finished) by
using Alt+Tab. I assumed that the setting 'Presentation always on top'
controlled this behaviour, in that, with the setting off, I expected Impress to
switch the display to the browser. I am raising this as a bug, as has been
suggested by luyu at
http://ask.libreoffice.org/question/2970/switching-to-browser-through-hyperlink

The PowerPoint file I am trying to use is attached. This file is a .pptx,
edited under Impress, to replace local hyperlinks with web links to YouTube
videos, then saved by Impress in .pptx format.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Create a slide including a hyperlink to a YouTube video.
2. Run the show and click the link.

Current behavior:
Video starts playing in the browser window, but this is not brought forward, so
it cannot be seen without manual intervention (Alt+Tab).

Expected behavior:
Browser should be brought to the front, so the linked page is displayed.

Platform (if different from the browser): 
LibreOffice/About reports:
LibreOffice 3.3.4
