if I open eeschema or pcbnew, it might not be because I want to create a schematic or a pcb. That is why maybe warn the user seems a little strange.
For instance, today I might open eeschema to open and see a schematic file that somebody sent me. No? I might be wrong but If I open libreoffice either by the writer or by the app manager, I do not see any warning window. A warning appears only if I actually write something in it and attempt to close the window without saving it. This is I think the classic behaviour of apps around. cheers fabrizio On Mon, May 14, 2012 at 10:04 PM, Dick Hollenbeck <[email protected]> wrote: > On 05/14/2012 03:01 PM, Dick Hollenbeck wrote: >> On 05/14/2012 02:15 PM, Lorenzo Marcantonio wrote: >>> On Mon, May 14, 2012 at 08:13:22PM +0200, jean-pierre charras wrote: >>>> If can be a valid empty file (mainly containing a short valid header) >> No, that's a mess.
