             Bug #: 53549
           Summary: EDITING: Link path to cells ought to be relative to
                    file location
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 3.6.0.4 release
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
 Status Whiteboard: BSA
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Spreadsheet
        AssignedTo: [email protected]
        ReportedBy: [email protected]


Relative linking rather than absolute paths between two spreadsheet files would
allow for proper cross-platform environment.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Open 2 Calc files
2. Navigate to a cell in "file1" and press "=" to begin a link
3. Then click in a cell in "file2"
4. Return to "file1" and complete formula by pressing enter

Current behavior: absolute link path created.

Expected behavior: relative link path created.
i.e. "file:///" to be followed by a relative path from the file location,
rather than an absolute path of the entire directory structure higher up.

The functionality of Calc works fine when used between computers of the same
OS, but when opened on one OS, then attempted on another OS with a different
file structure the path linking does not work.
