Description Klaus 2025-02-19 14:54:16 UTC
Description:
When Writer is in Web mode, e.g. "File > New > HTML document", the "File > Reload" entry is missing. The "Reload" action works when bound to a hotkey, it is just missing from the menu bar.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open Writer

2. File > New > HTML document.
   Remark: Opening an existing HTML document does not currently
   put writer into HTML mode on Linux.

3. Inspect the "File" menu. 

Actual Results:
No "Reload" entry.

Expected Results:
Expected to find a "Reload" entry.


Reproducible: Always

Confirmed that bug is present. There is no reload option from the file menu when in Writer/Web.
Comment 3 Jeana769Hadley 2025-12-04 11:27:22 UTC
In LibreOffice Writer’s Web mode (File > New > HTML document), the “Reload” option is missing from the File menu, even though the action still works via hotkey. This inconsistency occurs consistently on Linux (OpenSUSE Leap 15.6) and Windows 11, showing that while the backend command exists, the menu entry is not exposed in HTML mode.
