Hi Akash,

The patch really causes that you need to use "CTRL-clink" to open the
link when "Tool/Options/LibreOffice/Security/Options/Ctrl-click required
to follow hyperlinks" is enabled. So, it is great!

I see that the method "cGlobal::OpenURL" is used on more locations in
the "sc" module, for example when you handle SID_OPEN_HYPERLINK. I can't
find what this means. I guess that it is a toolbar, menu, or dialog
entry. This call should probably ignore the security setting because it
is not the pure mouse click.

I add some Calc experts into CC. I hope that they could help :-)


Best Regards,
Petr


PS: It would be great to modify also the helper text that is shown when
you hover over the link. It currently shows the target URL. If you look
into Writer, it shows "Ctrl-click to open hyperlink: http://..." I think
that it is related to STR_HYPERLINK_CLICK, see
source/ui/utlui/initui.src.
