------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sun Feb 25 00:41:14 +0000 2007 ------- hm, how about on the warning which pops up about the file format saving there could be a 'more info' link that shows you to a help page describing it more clearly, perhaps explaining some features which are less likely to work than others As for the save-save as mechanism, I think that there isn't much wrong with the way that OO currently handles it. ATM a user has to explicitly set OOo to save in a completely supported format, if they tell OOo to save as a MS document, for example, then they get a warning to that effect. ATM, Export seems to be a metaphor used for saving in formats that can't be opened natively by OOo. eg: Latek, and PDF. Nothing to wrong with that I feel, but then again nothing wrong with what you're suggesting. I would support sticking with what we've got, since I don't feel it would be worth the confusion of changing the interface for all those users. What should be implemented is a way to 'save a copy' to aleviate problem 2: >* Inconvenience when saving in a foreign format. > E.g, creating by "Save As" a copy of a Writer document as .doc--now the > current document has it's name changed and the "Recent Documents" list > points to the .doc, rather than the native file. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
