Title: warn if file on disk changes Status in Inkscape: Triaged Status in inkscape package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: An SVG file that is being viewed by Inkscape may be changed externally by another application without Inkscape raising a hand. Although this may sound like a bug it may be a cool feature if one builds an application that frequently updates the SVG file and the changes are being viewed on screen with Inkscape. So we have two scenarios: Feature: The Revert command in the File menu is changed into a dialogue box where the user can specify how often Inkscape should reload the file, thus refreshing the screen with the new updates. Something like: "[checkbox] Revert every [data field] seconds" Bug: Tune Inkscape so that it complaints if it realises that the SVG file has been changed externally. Provide an option to deactivate this behavior by activating the feature presented above. Thanks!
