Description Samuel Mehrbrodt (allotropia) 2018-06-19 09:37:33 UTC
When opening a document with macros, usually a dialog appears asking if macros should be enabled.

However, this doesn't work when opening a document via remote UNO. In this case, all interactions are "muted".

We should instead read the "Hidden" MediaDescriptor flag [1] and only if it is set to true, mute the interactions. If the document is visible, the macro dialog (and other dialogs) should be shown.
