Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 37287
Insert image window is case sensitive to file extensions
Last modified: 2004-11-29 13:49:17 UTC
The image selection window could not find a file with the ".GIF" (upper-case) extension.
Sorry, but wrong component. File Open Dialog is common for all Applications -> Framework. Frank
TM->WG: Please have a look, this is not a file-opene issue.
Sorry, could not reproduce this here with a file with .GIF extension. Could you attach a step by step description of your action and , if possible, the file? Which OS do you use? Thanks in advance.
Keyword added.
Steps: 1) Click in "Insert" 2) "Image" 3) "From file..." 4) Create a directory with a file named "test.GIF" (watch for the case sensitivity of this :) 5) In the file choosing window, enter this directory. You should notice that "test.GIF" isn't listed as it should when "All formats" is selected.
Sorry, I closely followed your description but the file is visible in my dialog (see attachment). Any further tips? Special OS or windowmanager? Thanks.

I just realised I have ommited critical info: I'm running OO 1.1.2 on a Fedora Core 2 installation. Also, maybe i18n could be a issue: pt_BR. I am using GNOME 2.6. Another very interesting bit: at home, on my Ubuntu Warty installation, I also have a OO 1.1.2 installed. The very window used for openning the graphics is different from this on Fedora. I don't have a screenshot of Ubuntu's here, but I'll post it as soon as I get there.
Created attachment 19473 [details] Graphic window on Fedora Core 2. Note that it don't have a .GIF file should be there. :)
Dou you have the chance to test if a newer version (current snapshot for example) still shows the problem? I tried it on Fedora Core 2 OOo1.9m62 and everything worked fine. Thanks.
sorry, no further information received and here the issue is not reproducible. Setting to works for me and close it.
Closed.
