------- Additional comments from ohal...@openoffice.org Mon Jan 18 17:18:46 +0000 2010 ------- This is an usability issue Scenario: 1) Have your windows explorer open. 2) Open a file with macro so that macro execution security dialog pops up. Do not confirm macro execution. Leave dialog open. 3) back to windows explorer (so that it hides the window with the file with macro), click on another ODF file in the windows explorer to open it Results The file does not open, task bar does not show that user intervention is required. On confirming the macro execution dialog of the previous file, all subsequent actions are performed at once. Funny / Weird situations generated: Is user is not aware (for some reason) on the pending action, he will retry the subsequent actions, and that creates confusion and can stress the operating system. It is relatively easy for a "stressed" user to open several files and thus have a confirmation dialog hidden by many other windows. Note that a confirmation dialog apears after the file is loaded which can take several seconds to open. On "releasing" the hanging dialog, user can experience unwanted results as for example, several files being opened at once. Recomended action: Taking "the other suite" as an example, a new file opened thru the windows explorer pops a message box indicating that another window requires user intervention, before the current action takes place. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
