Description narayanaras 2012-07-22 07:51:04 UTC
The Navigation bar is disabled when the file is in "Read only" mode. 
(The "Back" and "Forward" buttons are disabled.)

This creates a severe problem in navigation: After clicking a hyperlink, you cannot jump back!

To replicate this issue, follow these steps:

1. open a multi-page file that has a hyperlink (or create a test file).
2. In the View>Toolbars menu, select "Navigation" toolbar.
3. Click on the hyperlink. 
   The "Back" button of the Navigation toolbar becomes active.
4. Click on the "Back" button to come back to the hyperlink.

5. Click on the "Edit file" button. The file becomes read-only.
6. Now click on the hyperlink again. 
   But this time the "back" arrow does not become active.

I doubt that that ever worked better, [Reproducible] with "LibreOffice 3.4.5 German UI [Build ID: OOO340m1 (Build:502)]" parallel Server installation on German WIN7 Home Premium (64bit).
