Hellmut, this behavior is not a rule, right? As a programmer I assure you: once things are correctly handled, everything should be fine. Believe on me. :-)
And I repeat, it is just a guess for a name to the file, LyX won't impose the filename. An option to disable this feature is welcome (for those who dislikes). If a guess for the filename wasn't necessary, why LyX doesn't leave the file field blank instead of "newfile"? The answer is: because this feature improves the software usability. Just as an stupid example, suppose I create 10 new files, type something in all of them and hit "Save all". With this feature, I will be able to determine a good name for each file (based on the first sentence, or anything else) without navigate to each document. I bet I can't do the same if "newfile" or "Untitled" was the result. IMO, we need to improve the functionality of LyX, and not block good ideas. --- Diego Queiroz 2011/4/9 Hellmut Weber <m...@hellmutweber.de> > > > Am 08.04.2011 18:37, schrieb Inon Sharony: > > Hey LyX developers! > > > > As in MS (boo!)
