Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 55123
cannot delete section inserted as link
Last modified: 2013-02-07 22:32:17 UTC
If I insert an existing document as new section and select isnert "as link" then the new section is quite sensibly read-only. However I can't find an obvious way to delete the entire section once its been inserted
Currently Writer is not designed to also delete the whole content of a Section. It is possible to romove the section via Format.Section dialog and then remove the content manually from the document. It should be possible to do this in one step.
