Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 76896
help (pressing [F1]) starts a full text search
Last modified: 2017-05-20 11:28:00 UTC
In earlier versions of OOo/SO it was easy to get help to a specific command: place the cursor into the command string and press [F1]. Then the online help was openend with the index and with the help page for the selected command. Now it opens the search page with all pages where the command as a substring is found. Please test it with the "err" command. Please restore the earlier behavior. Thanks.
jsc -> ab: you are the new help owner. I am not sure if it really has worked before but i think it is worse to check the search function because the result are not satisfying.
STARTED ab->mroe: Which earlier version(s)?
OOo 1.1.x/SO 7 and earlier. I don't know if the former behavior ([F1] opens the index instead the search) also existed in the first versions of OOo 2/SO 8.
ab: Confirmed with SO 7
set target from 2.x to 3.x according to http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Target_3x
Reset assigne to the default "issues@openoffice.apache.org".
