Description olo 2004-05-18 14:36:51 UTC

The OpenOffice file format is in fact a ZIP archive with a well-defined
structure, containing various XML documents and separate embedded data.

Pictures are usually PNG or JPEG images placed in Pictures/ subdirectory in the
archive. They receive a random name upon saving, e.g.:

100000000000011B00000258E0B6C916.png
10000000000001330000011D59AAF934.png

10000000000003200000025791A0D1DF.png

At the same time those graphic objects in the document can get a name specified
by user (Right click on a picture, choose "Graphics...", go to "Options" tab,
type something into the "Name" field.), and the default assigned by OpenOffice
is Graphics1, Graphics2, ... for inserted graphic objects.

This information should be used when generating filenames to put in the ZIP
archive which comprises a file in OpenOffice native document format.

Notice, however, that OpenOffice doesn't enforce uniqueness of those names - so
there should be a mechanism in place which would add some short random or
sequential suffix to a file name when a naming collision is detected.

E.g. if there are 2 pictures named "Photo from meeting 1", the generated file
names could be:

Photo_from_meeting_1.jpg
Photo_from_meeting_1_01.jpg

P.S. I'm not sure about the most correct component for this issue, so please
feel free to reassign it if current component isn't optimal.

Hi olo,

thanks for using and supporting OpenOffice.org...

I change this to enhancement since this is not a defect...
All graphics inside the document get a name but you want them to get a "human
readable" name...

issue 55259 requests to keep the existing filename of the object/picture.

This is conflicting with this RFE. One solution would be to use the name of the
object when the user specified one an use the original filename otherwise.

But IMHO this would result in a mess, so I'm personally in favor of keeping the
original filename (with additional identifier if names aren't unique).

framework fits better as it would affect all applications.

There is a very similar problem with frame styles.
You can create a framestyle but when you refer to it in the xml you will still 
need to use the internally generated name.

A framestyle named 'leftpic':
<style:style style:name="fr7" style:family="graphic" style:parent-style-
name="leftpic">

The framestyle when used:
<draw:frame draw:style-name="fr7" draw:name="leftpic" text:anchor-
type="paragraph" ....

P.S.
Without any GUI changes as a first step I would find it very useful if Oo 
wouldn't rename upon save the pictures that I inserted manually into the 
Pictures folder with the name I specified. If the picture is already in the 
Pictures folder it couldnt have a duplicate name.
