After looking at the current behaviour of the Create Document command I tend to agree with mac_v, in that users want to work with new documents, not just create them and leave them sitting there. Couldn't we change the way the command works so that it opens a new document within the associated app using the template selected i.e. the same thing that would happen if the user double clicked on the template file directly? That would make the command much more useful in general.
I still think that the Templates folder should come pre-populated with some good basic templates - otherwise most users will never figure out what that folder is for in the first place (I didn't, and I've been using Ubuntu for years). If non-desktop users really have such a problem with that, then perhaps make it so that each user's Templates folder is only populated on the creation of a desktop user account? To be honest, I don't think that's really necessary though... how much room do a few basic templates take up really? -- "Create Document" Templates difficult to use https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/372132 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
