Description Eyal Rozenberg 2024-05-06 09:43:53 UTC 
Instructions:

1. Create a new document (e.g. Writer)
2. Insert an OLE Object: An existing file, with a link to the file, display as icon.
3. On the Edit menu, choose "External Links..."
4. Select the OLE object you've inserted
5. Press "Modify"

Expected results: File selection dialog comes up, selection button should say "Select" or "Set as new Target" or "Set as target" or "Set link target".

Actual results: File selection dialog comes up, selection button says "Insert"

Easy hack?

Where? I have Edit (opens the object), Properties, Delete, and Rename.

Don't spot the string in a quick glance in ChangeSourceClickHdl at cui/source/dialogs/linkdlg.cxx. Maybe mxFileDlg->setTitle( SfxResId( STR_SFX_EXPLORERFILE_INSERT ) ); in sfx2/source/dialog/filedlghelper.cxx but this affects all dialogs then. Could be solved by introducing another flag for FileDialogFlags but using this flag becomes a bit tricky.

But surely the button text is set differently for different file selection dialogs? Open, Save, Select, Insert ...
