Description yuriy.tsalyy 2022-09-02 14:45:26 UTC

Description:
Clicking on the "Help" button in the "Row Hight..." and "Column Width..." pop-up windows brings up a 404 not found error. 

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Open any database table in a table view
2.Right-click on any row header
3.In the context menu pick on "Row Hight..."
4.In the pop-up window click on "Help" button

Actual Results:
A 404 error page is opened

Expected Results:
Page with context help should be opened


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No



Additional Info:
Help ID: dbaccess/ui/colwidthdialog/dialog-action_area1

The same error happens if right-click on any column header and choose "Column Width..." in context menu and when click on "Help" in the pop-up window.
And also consequently the same problem appears in forms when using table views.

Confirmed with

Version: 7.5.0.0.alpha0+ / LibreOffice Community
Build ID: 9ba1e1486bf3fcccf98da93d3963b3d4036705a9
CPU threads: 16; OS: Linux 5.15; UI render: default; VCL: kf5 (cairo+xcb)
Locale: pt-BR (pt_BR.UTF-8); UI: en-US

The same is valid for Column Width.

A very similar page exists for Row Height in Calc, but with a small difference with the "Default value" option.

I've checked it with my Windows installation and there are the same problem - "Could not find Help page (404)".

Comment 3 Stéphane Guillou (stragu) 2023-01-09 13:44:11 UTC

Still the case in a master build from today:

Version: 7.6.0.0.alpha0+ (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community
Build ID: 8ae84bb5566e12df64236a116b9d1889d6f5f052
CPU threads: 8; OS: Linux 5.15; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3
Locale: en-AU (en_AU.UTF-8); UI: en-US
Calc: threaded

and since:

Version: 7.1.0.3 / LibreOffice Community
Build ID: f6099ecf3d29644b5008cc8f48f42f4a40986e4c
CPU threads: 8; OS: Linux 5.15; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3
Locale: en-AU (en_AU.UTF-8); UI: en-US
Calc: threaded

Help ID for row height is: dbaccess/ui/rowheightdialog/grid2
Help ID for column width is: dbaccess/ui/colwidthdialog/grid2

Version 7.0 would redirect to the generic Base main help page:

Version: 7.0.6.2
