With a graphical control in a form you will get the ralative address -
not the absolute. It will work on other systems the same way. I have
designed a database with many images here at home with my Linux-system
and put it at scool (teacher) on a Windows-system. Works right there.

have put this example to the last post:

If you have problems with this example please write a direct mail to me.

With frequent checks against the Shane Piper videos I've got a good deal
further, but come up against the next obstacle.

I don't want to use absolute addressing, in order to keep the database
portable, but I seem to have got the relative addressing wrong.  The
attached image shows the structure as it stands at the moment.  The URL
I'm giving is in the format ..\Images\someImage.jpg - btw, backslash or
forward slash?  I'm guessing I need to change them all to forward slash.

Q1 - have I put the Image directory in the best place?

Q2 - can you give me an example reference, please.

I feel to be in the "so near yet so far" stage.

[libreoffice-users] Re: How can I reassign a macro to a custom toolbar button?

[ptoye]

Thanks Jorge.

Sorry about the delay - I thought I'd replied to this but it hasn't
appeared.

I'm still on LibO 5.4 which probably explains the difference in the
messages.

I don't have much spare time for editing help files, and I've had a bad time
when trying to help with the documentation. The helpful scripts are
Linux-based and I'm a Windows user (sorry!) so trying to modify documents is
a seriously hard job. Also, I'm just a user and don't have any in-depth
knowledge, which means that anything I wrote would be either incomplete
(annoying) or wrong (bad). It's only when I find things which are actually
wrong in the documentation or code that I try to get involved, and in the
latter case I am certainly in no position to help.

Thanks again to everyone on the list who responded to this issue. After filing 
this with Mageia, it turns out that the problem also appears in Fedora. There 
is now an active LO bug report as it seems to be related to the port to GTK+3:
