------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Tue Apr 22 21:34:36 +0000 2008 ------- fme->troodon: Word count is done during idle time but only if the document has been modified, otherwise we assume the word count stored in the document to be correct. There's one restriction: If the word count stored in the document = 0, we start the background counting anyway. This is done because reading the document statistic is not implemented in the current Word filter, which results in a word count = 0 (in contrast to the rtf filter). If the document is modified and the word count is requested before the background word count has finished (e.g., by opening the word count dialog or by saving the document), a "foreground" word count is started, i.e., you have to wait for the word count to finish. You suggest to update the word count for unchanged documents if the user opens the word count dialog. This could mean that the user would have to wait quite some time before the result is shown, even if the document hasn't been modified and there was a word count stored in the document. What if the user opens a document and immediately wants to save it again, without making any modifications. In this situation, the word count is also requested. Should the word count update be forced in this situation, prolonging the save process? I don't think so, in my opinion we should use the word count which has been stored in the document, as long as the document is unchanged. But I agree with you that File->Properties->Statistics->Update should trigger a word count for unmodified documents. Can we agree upon this? --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
