Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 29885
Warn the user when the bibliography data source has been deleted or renamed
Last modified: 2013-08-07 14:38:26 UTC
- rename or delete the current bibliography database over "Tools - Data source" - open the Bibliography module -> the module shows an empty (no grid, no form) front-end and the "Choose Data Source" dialog in the foreground. This does not tell the user very clearly what happened what is to do etc. Proposal: 1) If the current Bibliography DB cannot be found when the module is called BUT other database exist: -> display a wrning: "The default bilbliography database could not be found. Do you want to select another one?" / Buttons Ok / Cancel --> OK: The module opens on an empty database with the "Choose Data Source" in the foreground. --> Cancel: does nothing 2) If the current Bibliography DB cannot be found when the module is called AND no other database can be detected:: -> display a wrning: "There are no registred data source at present" / Button Ok --> OK: The module opens on an empty database with the "Data source dialog" in the foreground. --> Cancel: does nothing
Note: this is a follow up from issue 11591
Set target milestone.
