Description: "View/Field Names" switches the display of fields between their rendering in the document vs. an internal representation which shows name or id of the target to ease finding problems. The mode can be triggered easily by accident in menu or via a keyboard shortcut which is appearent based on the questions on ask.libreoffice (see https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=159299#c1 ) A common solution to such modes is implementing a warning that announces the mode to be triggered with the option to not show the warning again. Such a solution was already implemented for https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=155561 and is also used by other products e.g. Firefox when entering cursor navigation via pressing F7 or Window’s sticky keys (5x Shift). The warning can read: "You activated Field Names. This will show the names of fields not as they appear in the final document but with their internal identifiers. Do you want to activate Field Names? Don't show again [ ] Yes/ No" Steps to Reproduce: Click View/Field Names or press Ctrl+F9 Actual Results: Activates internal field names instead of final rendering of the document; some of the field names are random IDs. Expected Results: Enable people to activate the mode, but prevent accidental activation Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: No Additional Info: Might be a relativly easy fix?
Prototype in https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/c/core/+/153505 Hossein, please add a code pointer where the Fieldnames command is execute (cannot find a SID_FIELDNAMES).
Reverting risky needinfo status which should not be used in this case.
