------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thu Nov 2 09:06:00 -0800 2006 ------- Summary: Closing an edited document does not always prompt Save dialog Problem: While editing Word Processor documents, usually previously saved ones, if you click on the close "X", OpenOffice will sometimes quit without prompting a Save changes dialog. 1) Open a Word Processor document 2) Create a table (sometimes this helps to regress) 3) type in some values in the table 4) Click the "X" close box Occurred: The document quits without saving changes. Expected: The program should have asked the user if they wanted to save changes. Remarks: This bug is maddingly intermittent. I have had to happen to me about four times now over the course of several months. This problem seems to be endemic, surviving between version changes. I have had this most often happen for me while I was editing a document with multiple tables and colors. This is a serious problem because DATA IS LOST. I'm sorry I could not give you a reproducible case for this bug. Possible FIX (suggestion): Perhaps a more general fix might be some redundant code inserted that makes sure that once the user touches any key on the keyboard, even if the document is not edited, the program will ask the user if they want to save? That way this elusive bug can be addressed. The surest way to drive away new users is making them lose data. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
