------- Additional comments from m...@openoffice.org Mon Aug 23 16:08:53 +0000 2010 ------- I agree with your suggestions (but that's probably uninteresting, as I don't have any stakes in Calc in particular ;-)), but that's something different than the selection of the application we are talking about. Here we have to guess wether the file contains delimiters at all (as the suggestion is to select Calc in case there are delimiters), and this test will always fail for all text files as all text files contain delimiters. Type detection and file import filtering are separate processes in OOo, so before Calc can get a chance to guess the best suggestion for the delimiters, it needs to become selected as the application of choice for the file. I don't like to introduce guess work here, IMHO a predictable behavior is better. That's the reason why I like the approach to choose Calc as the preferred application for a file to be opened if the user currently works in Calc and Writer if the user currently works in Writer. After that it would indeed be a nice improvement if Calc would try to guess the delimiters instead of using a default, even if this guess work might fail in some cases. It's only a suggestion that the user can correct. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
