Unfortunately it can't be backported as there is a string change Reproduced back to Version 4.1.0.0.alpha0+ (Build ID: efca6f15609322f62a35619619a6d5fe5c9bd5a) |
Description: If you open a OLE-linked document, LO will ask confirmation to update the linked information on open. But this happens before the document shell has even set the title of the shell, so a user has no way to know, what "This document" really refers to. If you do this from the start center, the message box is displayed even before there was any change to the shell, but you can see at least which document was selected. This is especially problematic if you have multiple open documents restored by a session manager. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open the attached writer document from the console, which OLE-links a Calc or 1. Keep the document open, so it will be restored by the session manager Actual Results: You get a confirmation message box to update the links in "This document" Expected Results: The message box should include the referenced document name. Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: No Additional Info: Also happens on master. The string doesn't contain a reference to the file name.
