Re the .bkp feature: that description sounds clear. (Though I personally wouldn't find it of much use; but that's just my work preference: I try to save often, and I struggle to see how I'd use that last save, .bkp version.) Re the "n minutes", it says nothing whatsoever about when the time is measured from, nor whether it is per document. Right nopw that text reads: "To save recovery information automatically every n minutes Choose Tools - Options - Load/Save - General. Mark [Save AutoRecovery information every] and select the time interval. This command saves the information necessary to restore the current document in case of a crash. Additionally, in case of a crash LibreOfficeDev tries automatically to save AutoRecovery information for all open documents, if possible" In contrast, the information at https://help.libreoffice.org/25.2/en-US/text/shared/optionen/01010200.html?&DbPAR=SHARED IS good and clear, and states both that the time is per document, and when it is measured from. It's a very concise and clear statement, IMO. (Thanks!) So, yes, when I upgrade to a released version which incorporates that ;ogic, I'll be much happier! Thanks again. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
