            Bug ID: 95380
           Summary: "Update links when opening" missing from Impress
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 5.1.0.0.alpha0+ Master
          Hardware: Other
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: medium
         Component: ux-advise
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: Katarina.Behrens at cib.de

Both Writer and Calc have the possibility to configure their behaviour when
loading the document that contains links to external sources. It is in Tools >
Options > Calc | Writer > General > Update links when loading, the choice is
between "Always", "On request" and "Never"

Impress, however, has no such option and it seems to always uses "on request"
mode. There is no way to disable that. As we have seen on HH Hackfest, some
users create presentations containing external links too (images, tables etc.)
and it is then PITA for them, being always forced to confirm that they really
want to update the content from external source(s) ...

So the suggestion is either to i) implement this choice in Tools > Options for
Impress too, or better yet ii) make it global for all app
