I get the read-only infobar, and saving the document a second time amends the file name (Untitled 1-1.odt). So everything works as expected here. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

If all this works without showing 2 warning dialogs on windows, there is a discrepancy which should be resolved: either warnings on windows that should be shown are not shown or on macOS errors that should not be shown are shown → needsUXEval. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

You even can edit WITH this bug, but die dialogue tells you you can't... see description above. (In reply to Stéphane Guillou (stragu) from comment #2) > Can you please share your full version info Version: 7.6.0.3 (AARCH64) / LibreOffice Community Build ID: 69edd8b8ebc41d00b4de3915dc82f8f0fc3b6265 CPU threads: 8; OS: Mac OS X 13.4.1; UI render: Skia/Metal; VCL: osx Locale: de-CH (de_CH.UTF-8); UI: en-US Calc: threaded (In reply to steve from comment #3) > I could not reproduce What exactly is the behaviour for you? It also changed for me. I am not aware of any updates to LS or macOS on that machine, but the behaviour is improved: Now, when clicking the EDIT Button in the blue ribbon, a confirmation dialogue opens, saying sth. like "You can't edit this doc. lacking write permission, do you want to open a copy?" So, the main issue is resolved, but the confusing dialogue upon opening persists. I still prefer the way things happen on Windows, where you don't get neither the Dialogue upon opening, nor the one when switching to Edit-Mode. Sure, these dialogues make it clearer to the user what's actually happening in the background. But i think the potential to confuse users and/or interrupt their workflow is not worth it. Yes, without any dialogues, some users might get confused if after an edit they can't save the doc. to the original location. Maybe, a good compromise would be to remove the dialogue on opening and keep the one on switching to Edit-mode. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

But as that one is about write permissions, and this one about the Read Only infobar not giving the expected result, let's keep both open. However, I could not reproduce with: Version: 24.2.0.0.alpha0+ (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community Build ID: d88779fc86385dde1215fd28b78a69eacc6b4f97 CPU threads: 2; OS: Mac OS X 13.2.1; UI render: Skia/Raster; VCL: osx Locale: en-US (en_US.UTF-8); UI: en-US Nor with 7.5.4. I use Ventura 13.2.1. Can you please share your full version info for macOS and for LO copied from LibreOffice > About LibreOffice?
