Hi Michael, I do not know much about LO, but I wrote the initial xml filter code for graphics in OOo. Maybe LO has changed some or there is a bug. But if it works for small documents it should work for large documents.
Are you really saving the presentation inside the directory with the images? are all images inside that directory? Maybe try - save presentation to image directory - close presentation - load presentation from image directory - save presentation again - close presentation - move image directory - open presentation from new image directory - save to desired location If this still does not work, try to actually change the document before each save step. F.e. insert a shape and delete it befor pressing save/save as. If all else fails, go to tools options / load&save and disable xml size optimization. Then safe the document and extract content.xml. Open with your prefered text editor, f.e. gedit, and search & replace the old image path. All in all this would make for a nice extension where one could batch process multiple links.

Hello Christian, thanks for your reply. That was the kind of easy trick I was looking for :) It worked perfectly for a simple test-presentation. But unfortunately it didn't work with the other presentation with content. It seems for me that the links in the document are still handled as absolute paths and are never changed. You mentioned that libreoffice uses relative paths when pictures and documents are located on the same filesystem. I tried a lot around since I have lots of symbolic links on my filesystem. Maybe they are causing this behaviour. But I still haven't understood why it works for one document and not for the other. Do you know if libreoffice falls back to relative paths when the file were once separated on two filesystems and are then put onto the same filesystem again? Thanks a lot Greetings Michael Just for Information: I'm using Debian squeeze and LibreOffice 3.3.1 (OOO330m19 (Build:8) tag libreoffice-3.3.1.2 ) -- View this message in context: http://nabble.documentfoundation.org/Moving-linked-pictures-in-Impress-from-one-directory-to-another-tp2916339p2920678.html Sent from the Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
