Bug ID: 114693
Summary: Inconsistency in restart suggestions for different
options which change requires restart for effect
Product: LibreOffice
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Keywords: needsUXEval, topicUI
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: LibreOffice
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Throughout LibreOffice, changing several options requires restart to take
effect. This includes OpenGL/OpenCL use, UI language, and extension
installation, among other.
When some of them changes, warnings about restart required are emitted to user;
however, the warnings are different for different settings:
* For OpenCL, a dialog with "Please restart LibreOfficeDev now so the new or
modified values can take effect." and single OK button is shown, which simply
informs about the necessary action, and relies on user doing it at a later
time.
* For UI language, OpenGL, and installation of extensions, a "Restart
LibreOffice" dialog with "For the <feature name here> to take effect,
LibreOffice must be restarted. Do you want to restart LibreOffice now?" and two
buttons, "Restart Now" and "Restart Later", is shown, which allows to initiate
the restart immediately, or do it manually at a later stage.
The proposal is to unify the OpenCL restart warning (and others using similar
warnings) with the one used for UI language etc.
