Description iain_designs 2009-06-25 13:38:18 UTC
Adding a hyperlink to a block of text is easy. Removing a hyperlink is not. I
cannot find a way to do it other than deleting the text and retyping it.

Having a new context menu item "remove hyperlink" would fix this, as would
having some sort of functionality within the hyperlink dialogue box to delete
the currently selected hyperlink. 

The issue that led me to this problem was creating a paragraph of text that I
cut and pasted a few times, then edited the contents of that paragraph for the
particular task I was working on. The hyperlink that was in the original
paragraph propogated throughout my entire document rendering the hyperlink
feature useless because it would always take me to the same original site,
regardless of what text I put there.

I know that MS Word has this super-basic functionality of deleting the hyperlink
and I would love to see it in OO.

Thanks
