--- Comment #4 from sdc.bla...@youmail.dk --- (In reply to Heiko Tietze from comment #3) > Doesn't it [Apply] apply? Yes, but in general, it is not necessary to use this button, because simply navigating to another entry is sufficient to "save/apply" a change in an entry (without having to use the "Apply") button. > > Proposal 1: Make the "Close" button automatically save any changes that are > > made in the current index entry. > If Close is Apply/Save how do you apply without closing? At present, "Close" is *not* "Save". If you change a entry (and do not navigate to another entry) and "Close", then nothing is saved. It is necessary to "Apply" before "Close". (afaict, this is the only situation where, at present, the "Apply" button is actually needed/useful.) > Reset means to revert changes made before, ie. using the attributes from the > parent in case of styles. In this case, the "before" state would be index entry before making any editing changes. The idea is that if a mistake is made in editing the entry (and you have not navigated to another entry), then "Reset" would return the entry to the state it had before editing. This idea would be relevant/necessary if Proposal 1 is followed (with Save on Close), because "Reset" would be useful (to allow resetting an edited entry before using "Close"). All these points can be seen/confirmed by using the attachment, which already has some index entries. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
