Setting hyperlinks to open in a new window
Hello,
In OpenOffice/LibreOffice, when I embed hyperlinks, how can I make
sure they will open in new windows?
I've tried both the in-house Help function and Google, but not found
anything useful quickly. Any help you can offer would be very much
appreciated.
Thank you!

Perhaps you should change some settings in Tools -> Options ->
OpenOffice.org -> Memory.
Number of Steps: reduce this to 20 for starters. Use for OpenOffice.org:
increase this to 255MB.
I don't know how much RAM you have nor how old it is. (Older RAM
is more likely to have sections that no longer work reducing the amount
of usable RAM.)

On OpenOffice Writer, right click on an hyperlick, you have an item
"Edit Hyperlink..." on the context menu that opens the "Hyperlink
Dialog".
On the Hyperlink Dialog you can set the target frame under "Further
settings" - "Frame", select "_blank" on the list box.
You can also use the Hyperlink Bar (View - Toolbars - Hyperlink Bar".

Hi Dale,
Yes, there is a setting in the hyperlink window that enables me to set
[target="_blank"].

I'm really not familiar with creating links in an open office document,
but I would imagine that it somehow embeds the HTML commands. If the
following looks familiar, you might be able to use it:
To create a link in an HTML document you use the following tag:
<a href="www.somelink.com">Text to click on</a>
To ensure that this link opens in a new window, it is amended like this:
<a href="http://www.somelink.com" target="_blank">Text to click on</a>
Whether this link will then open in a new window or in a new tab is
determined by the settings in the browser, but it will be one or the other.

I don't know such setting in AOO. My setting in Seamonkey always wins

Hello Dan,
No. Rather, when I embed a link to a website, I want (or rather, my
editor wants me) to set it so that when someone clicks on it, the site
comes up in a new window. She explained how it's done in Microsoft
Word. How can I arrange that in OpenOffice/LibreOffice?
Thank you very much!

Do you mean you want to use the hyperlink to open another Apache
OpenOffice document (text, spreadsheet, slide show, or database)? If so,
a macro is more likely what you would need instead of a hyperlink.

Re: Setting hyperlinks to open in a new window
Posted by Jeffrey Deutsch <jd...@gmail.com>.
Hello Henri,
You're certainly right in that the reader can sometimes set it him/herself.
Thing is, I write for a publication whose editor wants us to submit
all the stories in Microsoft Word...and set any embedded links* to
open in a new window. She explained how it works in Microsoft Word
itself. Of course, I use OpenOffice/LibreOffice, and not all the same
controls appear here.
So if there is a way to set embedded hyperlinks in
OpenOffice/LibreOffice to open in new windows, any help in setting
that up would be great.
[*] And no, she doesn't want separate URLs.
Thank you!

Jeffry, I suspect that this is something that is rather regulated at the
level of the *reader*'s web browser, rather than that of the writer's
office suite. Thus, for example, when I perform «Ctrl + click» to open a
hyperlink in a Writer document, if I've configured my browser (Firefox
Nightly 19.0a1 (2012-10-23)) so that «Open windows in a new tab» is ticked,
it opens in a new tab in the same window, whereas if this option is not
ticked, a new FF window is opened with a single tab, i e, in which the page
to which I've linked is launched. But perhaps I'm missing something....
