Bug ID: 146532
Summary: Linking objects from Calc to Write in DDE mode.
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 7.2.4.1 release
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Writer
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Now, with L.O. 7.2.4.1, the connection works correctly again.
There remains a minor bug that I had already reported in the past.
When opening a text document that has links to scalc files embedded, you are
asked if you want to update it or not (in the meantime the data in the
spreadsheet may have changed).
Choosing "YES" the embedded object will reflect the current state of the data
in the spreadsheet.
At this point, closing the ODT file, the bug can occur if the closing is
performed by clicking on "X" as commonly used.
a) if the document has not been further edited (changes to the actual text),
the closure takes place without saving (and this without even a warning) losing
the upgrades.
b) the problem does not occur in all other cases:
- the text has also been changed
- the embedded ODS data has been updated manually from "Edit> Links to external
files ..." (Update button)
- close the ODT file with "Save" or "Save with name".
Question: is this a bug? or is the fact intentional? in the latter case, I
think it would be right to indicate it and prevent possible damage with a
warning.
