------- Additional comments from ro...@openoffice.org Tue Sep 8 14:53:22 +0000 2009 ------- Hmm, maybe I did not really state the problem such that it can be seen. Trying it differently: With 3.0.1 (sorry at this XP machine I do not have a newer version for development purposes) on Windows XP a link to the "OpenOffice.org 3.0" icon is placed on the desktop and in addition it is available in the Windows Start menu system. Double-clicking the OOo icon (dubbed "OpenOffice.org 3.0") on the desktop or picking it from the menu will open an OOo window with a menu in the middle, in which one picks an OOo filetype (swriter, scalc, simpress, etc.). As a result the OOo window changes and a new document of the chosen type is displayed in it. While a person is editing that newly created document type, but needs to quickly create another new OOo document type, then it is intuitive to just double-click on the aforementioned OOo icon or pick that menu option. I would expect then the same behaviour as described above: a new empty OOo window appears containing a menu of OOo document types that the user chooses from to create another new OOo document. Instead, the previously created docoument gets the focus and the user cannot choose a new document type s/he wants to create. --- Maybe yet another explanation: - a user wishes to create a new Document A and double clicks/picks "OpenOffice.org 3.0", which yields a new OOo window and a choice of document type one wishes to create - the same user wishes to create another new Document B (while Document A is still being edited) and double cliks/picks "OpenOffice.org 3.0", which now behaves differently: it will focus on Document A, but not allow one to create a new document. I think this is irritating/distracting users (also, I think previously it would always create a new document window from which one was abele to choose the desired document type; cannot double-check the behaviour on 3.1.1 currently). HTH, if not, please ask again. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
