Summary: After saving as .csv, unexpected behaviour causes silent data loss Product: LibreOffice Version: LibO 3.4.3 release Platform: All OS/Version: All Status: NEW Severity: major Priority: medium Component: Spreadsheet AssignedTo: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org ReportedBy: freedesktop....@timsk.org When saving a spreadsheet as a .csv, the user is warned that only the current sheet is being saved. That's a useful warning. However, if the currently open spreadsheet contains more than one sheet, the following behaviour is unexpected and destructive. Say I have saved Sheet1 as MySheet1.csv. In my still-open spreadsheet, I go over to Sheet2, change something, and hit ctrl-S. The contents of my file MySheet1.csv are OVERWRITTEN with the data from Sheet2. I have lost the saved copy of Sheet1. Each time I hit ctrl-S, the current sheet is saved as MySheet1.csv, but the still-open spreadsheet is marked as "Saved", and can be closed without any warning about data loss. Speaking of data loss, it's about 30 to 40 edits over four days, in my case just now. :o( There are actually two problems here: (1) Hitting ctrl-S should not be allowed to overwrite a saved copy of one sheet with data from another sheet. (2) The still-open document should be marked as "modified", not "saved", unless *all* parts of it have been successfully saved since the last edit. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug. _______________________________________________ Libreoffice-bugs mailing list Libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-bugs
