--- Comment #6 from Mihai Vasiliu <[email protected]> --- (In reply to jan d from comment #5) > we probably should have > "Apply" and "Close" on dialog boxes that make changes to the document, since > "Cancel" does not make much sense if we can do changes that are uncanceled > when canceling. So in this case we should have an OK - Cancel - Apply triptlet, but only if the Apply was clicked the Cancel button should become Close, as it is done this way in other softwares, and the Close button should become Cancel again if more changes are made without being Applied. (In reply to jan d from comment #4) > To clarify: "Apply" is talked about here as "Preview" but a preview usually > indicates that there are no changes made. Am I correct in assuming that > "Apply" and "OK" do the same changes to the document, but "OK" closes the > dialog and "Apply" keeps it open? Yes and no, in this case I just want a way to preview or apply the changes without closing two dialog boxes and then reopen them if I am not satisfied with the result. Either preview or apply would work here, but I would go for an Apply button, as if I am satisfied with the result, I can exit and keep the changes as well. Would be more intuitive than a simple Preview button that I have to remember to save (press OK) im my opinion. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
