Menu handling for OLE - i,e,["inplaced" OLE objects] missing in file menu specification
Last modified: 2013-08-07 15:31:14 UTC
In the menu structure specification of the chart2 (http://specs.openoffice.org/chart/menus/MenuStructure.odt) in the table of chapter 1.2.1 you read "Commands like Save, Save As, Reload, Send, Print, Page Preview, Export, Export as PDF are forwarded to the parent module." and a reference to the file menu specification (http://specs.openoffice.org/appwide/menus/FileMenu.sxw) exists. DEFECT: The chart(2) isn't specified in the file menu specification directly, like all "internal" ("implaced") OLE objects (e.g. Writer in Calc, Calc in Impress, etc.) Expectation of a user for chart(2) (or any other "implaced" internal OLE object) would it to execute "File" / "Reload" to get the initial state of the document with the original embedded object.
Added keyword usability
change summary to "Menu handling for OLE - i,e,["inplaced" OLE objects] missing in file menu specification" change type to enhancement. The hosting document decides whether certain menu items are enabled. In the case of Reload the focus should be removed from the active (e.g. Chart) OLE and the document should be reloaded.
