On pc Debian x86-64 with master sources updated yesterday, I could reproduce this. UX-Team: for Calc and Writer, the function isTrustedLocationUriForUpdatingLinks is called in this case. Here is its definition: bool SvtSecurityOptions::isTrustedLocationUriForUpdatingLinks( OUString const & uri) const { return GetMacroSecurityLevel() == 0 || uri.isEmpty() || uri.startsWithIgnoreAsciiCase("private:") || isTrustedLocationUri(uri); } See http://opengrok.libreoffice.org/xref/core/unotools/source/config/securityoptions.cxx#isTrustedLocationUri I think clicking on "Always" for updating should warn about this. Just CC'ing the design ML. (In reply to Eric from comment #0) > Actual Results: > Calc always prompts to update external links on startup > > Expected Results: > If I set the Updating Option to "Always" it should not prompt me on startup, > it should just proceed as if i said "Yes" to the prompt. I just found out that the Help reads: "This setting is treated as On request unless either the global macro security level is set to Low in Tools - Options... - LibreOffice - Security - Macro Security... - Security Level - Low (not recommended) or the document is located in a trusted place defined by Tools - Options... - LibreOffice daily20170720 - Security - Macro Security... - Trusted Sources - Trusted File Locations. " So assuming it's not from a trusted location nor the 'security' is set to Low (none), then it works es designed *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 92837 *** You are right (I tried what you posted), however... If you go to 'Tools->Options->LibreOffice Calc->General' and click the Help button that info isn't mentioned at all. Here is what shows up : Update Update links when loading Always Always updates links while loading a document. On request Updates links only on request while loading a document. Never Links are never updated while loading a document. I would expect that the info you found would or should be explained there. CC'ing Olivier for the help question.

See https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=92837#c36 is has been pushed 2017-05-05 - so only in Master and 5.4.0beta, I gues ;) |
