Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 44868
OOO 1.x gallery elements not dragable in OOO 2.x
Last modified: 2013-08-07 14:38:26 UTC
I have created a dozen gallery in 1.x based on fr.openoffice.org galleries and others work. I loaded into 2.0, but I can not drag and drop from gallery to documents. Right click on element and copy works well. If i add elements to Gallery in 2.x then it will remain dragable. Can you comfirme it, please? KAMI
Our galleries at: http://hu.openoffice.org/servlets/ProjectDocumentList?folderID=377&expandFolder=377&folderID=375
Reassigned to SBA.
same in B87
and in M89
I still can reproduce it under M91 ENG and M92 HUN...
And in m93
What about a step-by-step instruction? What am I supposed to do with the gallery1.zip? Also having to download ~10 MB to check an issue is not perfect either. Please always try to provide small testcases.
Oh man :o) Have you ever tried Gallery? :o) Close OpenOffice.org 1.9.x well (And also close the quickstart application) Download any of gallery from here: http://fr.openoffice.org/Documentation/Gallery/indexgal.html or from here: http://hu.openoffice.org/servlets/ProjectDocumentList?folderID=377&expandFolder=377&folderID=375 (If you hate small files...) :o) Put it to the right place: OpenOffice.org 1.9.93\share\gallery or into your local profile... Start OpenOffice.org 1.9.x (for example Writer component)... Click on Tools -> Gallery OpenOffice.org will show you the just installed gallery. Select a pic from it. Try to drag onto (with left) the workspace. The cursor has a plus sign (like copy) but after the drop no picture on workspace. If you do it in another way like select picture, right click, from the context menu: insert then copy (first and first menu) it will insert the selected picture. My gallery is mixed now, so you can see the functionarity is deffected with old, gallery created under 1.x.. And good functionarity with the gallery is created under 2.x. So if you put pictures into old gallery (1.x) under 2.x, the new pictures will be dragable, and the old pictures still remain undragable... This is why I created this article... If you have more question, do not hesitate, ask! Thanks, KAMI under 2.x to originally version 1.x gallery
> Oh man :o) Have you ever tried Gallery? :o) No, I used the gallery before, but when I wrote the question, I just started the download of the gallery-zipfile. With my connection this lasts 20Minutes. After I downloaded the file I could have a look at the contents. Furthermore, your description still is not a step-by-step instruction. This sounsl like nitpicking (and it fact it is), but having easy to follow descriptions is essential for handling an issue efficiently. E.g. you write > Put it to the right place: OpenOffice.org 1.9.93\share\gallery or into your > local profile... But his is not a complete description since you have to unpack the zip-archive to that direcory (now in this case it is easy to tell what was meant by this, but with other issues those kind of things are not as obvious). So for future issues: Always provide step-by-step instructions, always try to provide small testcases (don't let us download 10 MB of "useless" data)
I can reproduce the problem with the downloaded-gallery files. But how did you generate such a gallery? I can only create gallery-themes where the files are linked, not included in the gallery-files themselves.
Gallery is not useless :o) That is why there is not SVG filter for OOo :o( I am "happy", because you can reproduce my issue. Open gallery window from Tools. You can create "embedded" (I really don't know the good name of it) gallery by click then keep clicked until few seconds until the vector based pics counturs changed. After that you can drag into gallery's window. The new element will show up in Gallery windows. This may not work for bitmap pictures. Best regards, KAMI

I can drag pictures into a gallery-theme, but still they won't end up in the gallery-files themselves, but in a folder <oodir>/user/gallery/dragdrop - the gallery files still contain pointers to the file, not the file itself (tried with jpeg, png, gif, wmf). So the question still is: How did you generate the files in gallery1.zip from the Document & Files section of hu.ooo (that is the file I downloaded)
Can someone set this issue to comfirmed. The target milestone may be 2.0 because it is report incompability with 1.x... --- How? First of all, You should use vector based pic, not png, jpg etc. WMF is good :o) Load the picture into draw. Click in drawed part of clipatr, and hold the mouse button. The shape of vector based gfx will change to dashed like linestyle. Agter that you can drag it into Gallery panel, then you can release. The embedded image should appear in gallery... KAMI
Please set to confirmed with target 2.0.
Finally I was able to reproduce, but not with an external picture, but with a drawing. To reproduce: 0) in OOo 1.1.4 create a new gallery theme 1) Draw a rectangle and drag it into the gallery 2) copy the gallery-file to the OOo 1.9 gallery-directory 3) Start OOo 1.9mXX and open the gallery -> the theme is present and the rectangle as well. 4) Try to drag the rectangle into the document -> Nothing happens 5) Use the contextmenu on the rectangle in the gallery and choose "Copy" -> rectangle is inserted into the document. When the gallery is created using OOo 1.9mxx, you can drag the rectangle into the document.
SBA->MSC: The Gallery (...derivates...) is/are in your area. Please proceed. Thank you. Reassigned to MSC
MSC -> Caan you look into this problem?
Hi, I can reprudoce this also with the decsription from cloph Thu Apr 28 13:21:07 -0700 2005 reassign to the right developer. Bye Marc
Thanks, but the excepted repair time seems to long to me...
Are there any way to convert may 1.x gallery to 2.x format? I do not want to do it on thousand element by hand...
There are any way to do it for 2.0.2?
This bug is duplicate to Issue 48062, and if it is not too much effort we will try to fix this issue for OOo 2.02. *** This issue has been marked as a duplicate of 48062 ***
