Steps: 1. Write some text. 2. Select a word and create a bookmark with Insert > Bookmark > Insert. 3. Select another word and drag-and-drop the bookmark from the Navigator onto the text selection. Result: nothing happens Expected: the bookmark is hyperlinked, using the text selection as the hyperlink text, just like would happen if done through the Hyperlink dialog. Other hyperlinkable elements should get such enhancement too (e.g. Headings, Tables, etc.) Wasn't possible in OOo 3.3, so inherited. Tested in recent 24.2 master build.
I couldn't reproduce on current build.
(In reply to MW from comment #1) > I couldn't reproduce on current build. What do you mean? This is an enhancement request. I'm asking to make it possible to use a text selection as the hyperlink text when drag-and-dropping a hyperlinkable object from the Navigator. Do you mean that you manage to do that?
And maybe the scope can be expanded for this request: Make this possible when drag-and-dropping any hyperlinkable object from the Navigator (e.g. images, shapes, tables, bookmarks...) Jim, what do you think?
