Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 35292
can't delete cross reference
Last modified: 2013-08-07 14:38:26 UTC
I can add reference fields, but later I can't delete them, only not to use.
reassigned to ES.
ES->BH: when you set a reference over "Insert - Fields - References - Set reference", there is no easy way to delete this reference afterwards. The only way to do this is to select the text where the reference has been set, cut and paste as unformatted text.
This should be dealt with in a wider context. There is also now way to edit properties of an already defined cross reference anchor. Assume, you have choosen a wrong "value" while defining a cross reference, there is no way to edit this value later (isn't it?). If one already has inserted multiple references to the cross reference definition, one want't to be able to edit the value later - without removing the definition and all references...

This is really annoying -- the Edit -> Field selection is unavailable even if you place the cursor at the beginning of a reference target. The whole process of editing fields is pretty cumbersome.
There doesn't seem to be any activity to solve this issue:( I would also like to drag and drop the reference from Navigator.

To grep the issues easier via "requirements" I put the issues currently lying on my owner to the owner "requirements".
