https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=81658 Kumāra changed: What|Removed |Added Status|RESOLVED|REOPENED Resolution|WORKSFORME |--- --- Comment #12 from Kumāra --- I'm reopening this. I now agree with Ulrich Windl (in Comment 9) that "It seems the fix isn't complicated, but would help usability a lot." The 2 suggested workarounds are not really workable: 1. Create a caption and reference it instead. a. The user may not want to have a caption. (That's true for me.) b. Clicking on the link leads to the caption, not the table. OK if the caption is above the table, but not OK if its below (esp a long table). c. Even if the above issues are relevant to certain users, the steps are unnecessarily tedious. 2. Drag and drop a table object from the Navigator into the document. a. This creates a link with a line, which may be undesirable. b. The user can't insert the page number and other elements available for cross-references. Since LO can cross-reference footnotes, why not tables? So again, I'd like to request this enhancement: Include Tables among Cross-references, which "isn't complicated, but would help usability a lot." For the benefit of others seeking the same, my current workaround is to place a bookmark on the first row of the table, and cross-reference that. That's the only way I know to make the result elegant, but it's a bit tedious. A fix is still much preferred, and will be much appreciated. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.___ Libreoffice-bugs mailing list Libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-bugs

https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=81658 --- Comment #9 from Ulrich Windl --- IMHO that does not work for me: The problem as described is not fixed, and the workaround presented in comment #1 simply demonstrates that all the mechanisms needed are there in the code base (e.g. captions as suggested in comment #3 and comment #4 are not really necessary), just the higher levels don't make use of it. It seems the fix isn't complicated, but would help usability a lot. Also in 5.2.5.1 (Linux) no hyperlinks are inserted when dragging a table from the navigator, but in 5.2.6.2 (Windows) they are. Also in the latter version I could rename the Table using Unicode characters (e.g. "Tabäle1"), and dragging the table into text correctly displayed the Unicode character. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.___ Libreoffice-bugs mailing list Libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-bugs

You're right. This I've just learnt from you. Thank you very much! The "ugly" text link is editable. So, it's ok. Actually, I can also rename the table at the Navigator first (though space characters unallowed). All's good here. The only issue left is the table names must contain basic alphanumerics only. If Unicode characters are used, dragging the link into the text will have "?" in place of any Unicode characters. It also makes the link useless. Workaround: Avoid Unicode characters in table names. Then (as Ulrich suggested) from the Navigator, drag the table name to where you want to place the link. Edit the link text if necessary. (Note: Renaming the table later will break the link.) Marking this as WORKSFORME. (Btw, this issue is not about "Table of Contents". Please report that separately.) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.___ Libreoffice-bugs mailing list Libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-bugs

https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=81658 --- Comment #6 from Ulrich Windl --- Looking at the image in attachment 132351, I noticed that "Create from" "Object Names" is unchecked: If I check that, I get an index for images and tables, but I cannot select what type of information I want (like for "Create from" "Captions"). That must be a bug: Why is the option "Captions", if it allows sub-options "References", "Category and Number", and "Caption Text"? To me the first option "Create from" seems useless, because you could select it all from the sub-options.

I strongly object: A table is a table even without a caption. You can even select between "References", "Category and Number" and "Caption Text". So only for the last one a caption should be (must?) present. In the sample document both indexes (tables of images and tables) are empty, even though "Category and number" was selected. However Navigator shows both: "Table1" and "Image1". -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.___ Libreoffice-bugs mailing list Libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-bugs

https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=81658 --- Comment #4 from dieterp --- Sorry, I've forgotten an important step in my previous comment: First you have to make sure, that captions are automatically added: Tools -> Option -> LibreOffice Write -> AutoCaption -> Enable "Add captions automatically when inserting" for LibreOffice Writer table. If you now insert a new table in your document, "table" as a type in your cross-reference dialog. So my proposal is to close this bug as WORKSFORME and open another bug for Writer-Help so that somebody can add some informations about tables as a type of cross-reference in the help. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.___ Libreoffice-bugs mailing list Libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-bugs

https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=81658 --- Comment #3 from dieterp --- I think the option of using tables as a cross-reference is there. Steps to reproduce (with LO 5.2.3.3): 1. Open an new document 2. Insert an new table (Table => Insert table) and enable "headings" => Insert table 3. Insert => Cross-reference => You can choose the type "table" I think it depends on creating a heading, because 4. Delate the heading of the table 5. Insert => Cross-reference => You can‘t choose the type "table" I only got the solution, because in one of my documents I could choose table as a reference-style and within another document I couldn't. So I think it would be unseful to add this information in LO Help, because I could'nt find this information there (german version). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.___ Libreoffice-bugs mailing list Libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-bugs
