Bug ID: 92984
Summary: FILESAVE: Modifying and saving existing CSV does not
warn about only saving active sheet
Product: LibreOffice
Version: Inherited From OOo
Hardware: Other
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Calc
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Description:
If you open an existing csv file, create a new sheet, and then do a simple
save, you will be encouraged to save as a ods, but will not receive the warning
about it only saving the active sheet. You should always be warned on
file-save when you are only saving the active sheet. The appropriate warning
is seen if you use a "Save as..." instead.
Steps to reproduce:
* Open an existing csv
* Create a new sheet
* Key some data on the new sheet
* Ctrl-s (prompts to save as ods or keep it as csv)
* Choose "Use Text CSV Format" and click OK
Expected:
When saving a csv, you should always get a prompt saying that you are only
saving the active sheet.
Actual:
LibreOffice simply saves the active sheet, discarding the rest of the
spreadsheet with no complaints. Also, any further attempts to save no longer
give any prompts to save as ods or warnings that you are only saving the
current sheet.
Notes:
If you repeat the steps above and use "Save as..." instead of a normal save,
the appropriate prompt IS displayed:
"Warning saving the document test:
Only the active sheet was saved."
Again, this prompt should ALWAYS be displayed when saving a multi-sheet
spreadsheet as a csv.
I guess one could argue that the user was forced to choose csv over ods at
least once, but I know people who have lost work because of this bug. As I
mentioned above, after that initial decision, any subsequent saves go through
without any warnings.
I've tested this behavior on versions going back to OpenOffice 3.2.1, so I'll
set it as "Inherited from OOo." These tests were performed using 64bit Fedora
21. I also tested and can confirm this bug in LO 4.4.4.3 and LO 5.0.0.4.
