A screenshot of the insert-hyperlink dialog.

The dialog that appears by clicking "Insert" -> "Hyperlink" is closed, when "Apply" is selected. I think a click on that button should only apply the changes made and *not* close the dialog at all.

This is *not* a duplicate of bug 63271 it is the complete opposite. Furthermore i feel that "fixing" bug 63271 *introduced* the behaviour i am criticising.

Although 63271 is correctly marked as "RESOLVED WONTFIX" the "patch" seems to be included into the source.

The "Apply" button should *never* close a dialog window - it should only apply/adopt the changes made. And that's exactly how it worked *before* "fixing" bug 63271. Now - when applying the changes also closes the window - it feels broken.

May be an additional button "OK" is needed to solve this discrepancy.

"OK"    - Apply changes AND close the dialog
"Apply" - Only apply the changes
"Close" - Discard changes and close the dialog
