Bug ID: 146908
Summary: Should be able to *EXPORT* as CSV (FILESAVE)
Product: LibreOffice
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: enhancement
Priority: medium
Component: Calc
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Description:
One should be able to export CALC spreadsheets as a CSV file, not just via
save.
The reason is that the ODF format contains a lot of formatting info, not to
mention potentially multiple sheets. CSV is useful for input to some programs
but chances are good that the ODF should be the "master". But if you get a CSV
via 'save as' that becomes the default save type and it is easy to make a
number of changes, then save and exit without saving the changes to the master
ODF file.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a spreadsheet of any time
2. Save as an ODF file (or Excel for that matter)
3. Save as CSV
4. Save (without as).
Actual Results:
CSV is updated but not ODF.
Expected Results:
That behavior is expected but often not what is wanted.
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: No
Additional Info:
My proposal is to allow export to do CSV without affecting the default format
type.
