            Bug ID: 107470
           Summary: A hyperlink button cannot be deleted because
                    right-click menu is missing and button cannot be
                    selected
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 5.3.2.2 release
          Hardware: x86 (IA32)
                OS: Windows (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Calc
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org

Description:
There appears to be no way to delete a hyperlink button except to delete the
entire sheet which contains it.  (1) A hyperlink button is missing a
right-click context menu, so the button cannot be deleted using a right-click
selection.  (2) Moreover, when the button is left-clicked, the button object is
activated (calling up the requested web page) but not selected (the previously
selected cell remains selected).  (3) Selecting a range of cells containing the
button does not select the button object, so clearing formatting is
ineffective.

Steps to Reproduce:
In a sheet you can delete...
1. Create a hyperlink button (a) From menu at top: Insert -> Link (b) In the
popup, under form, select Button.  Enter URL (https://www.google.com) Text
(Google) Data (Google) (c) Select OK to create the hyperlink.
2. Right-click the button.  (Nothing happens.)
3. Select the row containing the button.  Then right-click the row and select
delete rows.  (The object remains after the row is deleted.)
4. Select the row containing the button.  Then from the menu at the top of the
page, select Format -> Clear Direct Formatting.  (The button is unaffected.)
5. Right-click the sheet tab and select Delete Sheet.  (The sheet disappears
along with the button.)


Actual Results:  
The button was completely unaffected by all operations except "Delete Sheet".

Expected Results:
In step (2) above, a right-click menu should have appeared containing options
to modify and to delete the button.

In step (3) above, deleting the row containing the button should delete the
button object.


Reproducible: Always

User Profile Reset: No

Additional Info:
I am using the PortableApps.com version of LibreOffice.
