Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 16817
Hyperlink/link "back" button
Last modified: 2008-05-18 00:09:31 UTC
Hi, another feature request: Navigating large documents by links/hyperlinks would be *much* easier if there was a "back" button (in Navigator maybe). This button would allow the user to jump back to their previous position in the document after following a link or cross-reference. At present if I click on a cross-reference, the hyperlink takes me directly to the loction of the reference/figure etc. (OK so far). Now, back to where I was editing .... hmmm... got to scroll all the way back (this is a large document afterall) or find the nearest heading and use Navigator. Kind of defeats the point of hyperlinks if it still takes me ages to get back to my edit-point, after following a link/cross-reference. A "back" button (like a web-browser) would be real nice. cheers, Bryan
