https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=135669 Bug ID: 135669 Summary: EDITING: Drag and drop from Windows Explorer to Writer does not make OLE object Product: LibreOffice Version: Inherited From OOo Hardware: All OS: All Status: UNCONFIRMED Keywords: needsUXEval Severity: enhancement Priority: medium Component: Writer Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org Reporter: libreoffice@nisz.hu CC: libreoffice-ux-advise@lists.freedesktop.org, nemeth@numbertext.org Created attachment 164208 --> https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/attachment.cgi?id=164208&action=edit Screenshot of the problem in Writer: I dropped a file there, can you see it? When a file is dropped from the Windows Explorer to Word it gets inserted as an OLE object at the drop point. When a file is dropped to Writer nothing happens. It would be intuitive for users to have this behavior. In our environment many people use this method to create a "main" document with a bunch of attachments embedded into it then send this "main" document around as a single file. Steps to reproduce: 1. Open a new document in both Word and in Writer 2. Drag an XLSX (or other non-text office document) file into the new documents from the Windows Explorer Actual results: In Writer nothing happens. Expected results: OLE object should be inserted.
