          Priority: medium
            Bug ID: 56000
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org
           Summary: FILESAVE: save icon should just stay active always
          Severity: minor
    Classification: Unclassified
                OS: All
          Reporter: brownboyj...@gmail.com
          Hardware: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
           Version: 3.6.1.2 release
         Component: Spreadsheet
           Product: LibreOffice

when i'm working with the Calc program i noticed that the developers went with
the interactive save icon approach.. the problem is, perhaps only in a
spreadsheet, there are things that i can change that may not trigger the icon
to be enabled again after i have saved.

example: 
i may freeze a portion of the window after my last save, and that action will
not trigger the save button to become enabled again.


i think having an interactive save icon is cool, but when compared to the
potential for bugs such as this, and the extra coding i'm sure had to be done
to keep up with possible triggers to re-enable the button, i think just leaving
the icon always enabled is the better more sensible option. it's on the user to
keep up with whether or not they saved their work. when applications try to
think for you, that's when things start getting weird. not being able to save
after i just froze a portion of the spreadsheet is weird.
