--- Comment #2 from pb <[email protected]> ---
Thanks.  That box is already checked in my install.

Nevertheless, the properties dialog for pictures shows absolute file names.

In the documentation, it says:

"...LibreOffice uses absolute path names internally. The complete path and
address can only be seen when you view the result of the HTML export, by
loading the HTML file as "Text" or opening it with a text editor."

If that is the situation for images inserted with a link, I don't see a way to
test how the link is being stored.  However, I did look inside the odt file,
and indeed the link is being stored as relative in content.xml.

So, I need to change my request.  The problem is that the properties dialog
shows an absolute path, but actually a relative path is being used if that
setting is in force.  The properties dialog should include a notation that
relative file name saving is in force, or absolute file name saving is in
force, and it would be even better if there were a way in that dialog to toggle
that, both for just this one file, or for all links.  

The current properties dialog leaves the impression that the files are stored
absolute, and the documentation I cited seems to only apply to hyperlinks in
the text.
