Bug ID: 111071
Summary: Behavior is not consistent when saving with unknown
file extension
Product: LibreOffice
Version: Inherited From OOo
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: LibreOffice
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
For clarification, "unknown file extension" is anything that's after the last
period in the file name, not necessarily an actual file extension. Users often
add dates or versions to file name, sometimes delimited by dots.
Normally the files end in an actual extension, but if not, it can cause
subsequent issues.
- Save a file with the name "abcd.12" in Writer.
=> ".odt" is correctly added as extension, which is good.
- Rename the file to "abcd.12" in the OS.
- Save a file with the name "abcd.12" in Writer in the same directory.
=> There is a confirmation dialog for overwriting the existing "abcd.12" file,
so ".odt" is not added in this case, which is inconsistent.
In Windows there's a checkbox in the save dialog, "Automatic file name
extension" that wasn't touched, and was checked in both cases.
Observed with LO 5.4.0.3 & 3.3.0 / Windows 7.
