FL: The "Reload" function is no hard requirement for an office application from
my point of view and the competition does not offer this function at all. I
think this requirement comes from past times when SO was a "web browser" many
years ago. Removing the function might be an option but I have no data to back
this decision and so we maybe disappoint some "normal" users used to this
functionality. Furthermore I do not understand that is is possible to exchange
the original document while a tmp copy of the document it is loaded. I thought
that even the original document file must be locked as long the copy of the
document is opened somewhere. Disabled file locking on a Linux system?
So I propose to rework the current implementation to the simple"close/load"
procedure like MBA has described above. I have no problem with closing and
reopening the document in front of the backing window (is this possible even if
it is not the last doc?) and that this is visible to the user - this is feedback
and indicates what is currently in progress. Even the cursors position must not
be the same after reloading, because the current part of the document might not
be contained in the original document at all and again it is feedback for the
reload being in progress. But the container attributes (window position, size,
document position inside the window and the document zoom level) should be
restored from recently closed working document from a usability perspective.
I would agree to set this to OOo 3.0 (to simplify internal doc handling), even
if I think this is not the most important issue, because normal user will have
no problems with the current implementation.
