------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Mon Oct 3 19:58:16 -0700 2005 ------- Autosave occurs even when the document has not been modified in any way. The document I am reading is large, and the save takes at least ten seconds, during which the UI is disabled and I have to wait. I was only scrolling with the mouse, but just to be sure, I've tried leaving the window completely untouched (no clicks, keyboard input, not even in focus) and Writer still autosaves at the frequency specified in the settings. The delay is extremely annoying whilst simply trying to browse a document. I know the saving speed is addressed in another issue, but it would also help if autosave only occured when there is a change to be saved. I'm not familiar with the code, but I presume there must be a flag for whether the document is modified or not, used to decide whether to display the 'do you want to save?' dialogue on exit. I'm giving 'OS' as Windows 2000 because that's what I'm using, but would assume that this problem applies to all operating systems. Perhaps somebody using a different platform could confirm that. I'm using the OpenOffice 2.0 release candidate currently available from the downloads page (04/10/05) --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
