Created attachment 62252 [details] A .pptx file containing slides with links to YouTube videos on slides 4, 19, 30, 45 Problem description: I am trying to adapt a PowerPoint presentation to Impress. The presentation has a number of links to YouTube videos. In Impress, when I click a link, the browser (Firefox) is started and the video plays, but the browser window is not displayed: the screen still shows the Impress slide. I can switch the display from Impress to the browser window (and back again once it has finished) by using Alt+Tab. I assumed that the setting 'Presentation always on top' controlled this behaviour, in that, with the setting off, I expected Impress to switch the display to the browser. I am raising this as a bug, as has been suggested by luyu at http://ask.libreoffice.org/question/2970/switching-to-browser-through-hyperlink The PowerPoint file I am trying to use is attached. This file is a .pptx, edited under Impress, to replace local hyperlinks with web links to YouTube videos, then saved by Impress in .pptx format. Steps to reproduce: 1. Create a slide including a hyperlink to a YouTube video. 2. Run the show and click the link. Current behavior: Video starts playing in the browser window, but this is not brought forward, so it cannot be seen without manual intervention (Alt+Tab). Expected behavior: Browser should be brought to the front, so the linked page is displayed. Platform (if different from the browser): LibreOffice/About reports: LibreOffice 3.3.4 OOO330m19 (Build:401) Ver: 3.3.4.1-4.fc15 uname -a reports: Linux [machine id] 2.6.43.2-6.fc15.x86_64 #1 SMP Sat Apr 21 12:53:32 UTC 2012 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux Browser: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:12.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/12.0 Hardware is a Lenovo T61. I am using the proprietary nVidia display driver.
Confirmed. Changing platform to All Bodhi Linux X64 LibO: 3.6.1.2 Marking as NEW and prioritizing Minor: Doesn't affect ability to make high quality work but quite annoying to have to alt+tab to view the links High: Potential to affect a lot of users who use impress as links to https quite common. It would be even nicer if we could embed the videos from youtube and the like but...I'm not sure if that's feasible, well outside of my programming skills Thanks for reporting!
WORKSFORME. NoRepro:4.2.2.1:OSX Browser opens above LO and video is played. Please reopen if this still persists with 4.2.2.1 or newer.
Thanks, Foss. Yes, confirming the correct behaviour occurs under Libre Office Version: 4.1.5.3, Firefox 27.0 and Fedora 19.
