Description Joachim Wilder 2012-03-03 04:34:16 UTC
In LibreOffice Draw the menue item insert-field-filename inserts the path plus filename instead of simply the filename.
First i think this is a cause of missunderstanding, because in Writer this menue item inserts simply the filename. In Writer is an aditional item called insert path/filename for the functionality to insert the path plus filename.
To the second, in my opinion it is often unwanted to have the path writen on a document, which is released out of the office.

Comment 14 Mike Kaganski 2022-05-05 06:07:52 UTC
What it the problem here? The field allows to change its appearance, by right-clicking it and choosing from "fixed"/"variable" and "File name"/"Path/File name" (the default)/"Path"/"File name without extension". The default looks sensible to me.
Comment 15 Joachim Wilder 2022-05-18 14:49:04 UTC
The menue item name is "file name", so i expected to get simply the "file name" (for default). I must admit, that i yet did not know that there is a possibility to change the behavior of the field after placing it on the sheet. I would prefere to select in advance.
