Description Jim Raykowski 2023-07-03 04:51:14 UTC
Steps to reproduce:

1. Open Writer
2. Insert some text, perhaps type 'lorem' and then press F3
3. Insert some shapes, Menu > Insert > Shape
4. Open either the sidebar or floating Navigator, Menu > View > Navigator or Ctrl + F5 or Ctrl + Alt + 4
3. Drag and drop a Drawing objects category entry (shape entry) from the navigator content view onto the document (using the "hyperlink" drag mode).

Result: A hyperlink is inserted but is not functional with ctrl + click.

Expected: The hyperlink works the same as when inserted with the Hyperlink dialog Target in Document, Insert > Hyperlink > Document > Target in Document.

Was already the case in OOo 3.3, so inherited. No appended "|<category>" like Images have.
