Bug ID: 85080
Summary: ENHANCEMENT: Show a pop-up dialog for "Read-only
recommended" file
Product: LibreOffice
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Libreoffice
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
This bug is based on Bug 84224. That bug was closed as WORKSFORME and now this
new bug is filed for an enhancment request.
Problem Description:
When you save a file in ms excel 2010, on the file save dialog there is "Tools
-> General Option -> Read-only recommended" option. When this option is enabled
when you save a file, next time when you open this file with ms excel there
will be a dialog pops up asking you whether you want to open the file read-only
or edit the file.
But when you open such a "Read-only recommended" file in LibreOffice, it's open
directly read-only. Althrough you can edit the file by clicking the "Edit File"
icon in the toolbar, very few people know the exists of this icon thus they may
think they are not able to edit this kind of file with LibreOffice.
This kind of file has the following tag:
docProps\app.xml:
...
<DocSecurity>2</DocSecurity>
...
See here:

OOXML Tags
DocSecurity
1 = Password protected
2 = Read-only recommended
4 = Read-only enforced
8 = Locked for annotations
Suggested Improvements:
When this kind of "Read-only recommended" file is opened in LibreOffice, a
pop-up dialog shows up, either:
* Tell the user the file is to be open read-only, if he/she want to edit the
file, please click the "Edit File" icon on the toolbar.
* Ask whether he/she want to open the file read-only or want to edit the file.
If the answer is "Edit", then LibreOffice should open the file in edit mode,
otherwise in read-only mode.
