Bug ID: 105994
Summary: Visio file opens with Writer instead of Draw
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 5.2.4.2 release
Hardware: All
OS: Windows (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: LibreOffice
Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org
Reporter: jason.dr...@ada.com.au
Bug: Libre office incorrectly opens visio *.vdx file with Writer instead of
Draw.
Expected behaviour: Double-clicking a visio vdx file from Windows Explorer, or
using the File->Open menu item from within LibreOffice Draw should open the
diagram in Draw
Observed Behaviour: Double-clicking a visio vdx file from Windows Explorer, or
using the File->Open menuitem from within LibreOffice Draw instead opens the
file in Writer, displaying the raw xml as ASCII.
The error occurs also from the Windows Command Prompt when run as follows:
cd C:\Program Files (x86)\LibreOffice 5\program
.\sdraw.exe -v D:\Downloads\test-visio.vdx
And using the equivalent command under cygwin:
cd /cygdrive/c/Program Files (x86)/LibreOffice 5/program
./sdraw.exe /cygdrive/D/Downloads/test-visio.vdx
In all cases no error message is produced, just the odd observed behaviour.
In cygwin the file type is reported as:
XML 1.0 document, ASCII text, with very long lines.
Windows Explorer properties reports filetype:
"Microsoft Visio 2000/XP/2003 Document (.vdx)"
Also Windows Explorer file association i.e. "opens with" is "Unknown
Application" despite having previously been set to "LibreOffice Draw"
Additional info: This bug occurs on Windows 10 pro 64bit, and on the latest
release of LibreOffice as well (version of 5.2.5.1)
