Bug ID: 151541
Summary: Provide "Edit filter settings" checkbox in File Open
dialog
Product: LibreOffice
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: LibreOffice
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
There is a "Edit filter settings" checkbox in our Save As dialog. It allows to
bring the filter settings dialog for those filters (CSV, DBF, Text (Choose
Encoding)) that have options.
On the other hand, File Open dialog, that also allows to choose those filters,
does not have such a checkbox, and the filter settings dialogs are shown
unconditionally on open.
There are lots of requests to allow skipping those filter settings dialogs (see
e.g. bug 74580 and all its duplicates). If we add the checkbox here, it could
be used further to avoid the dialogs when opened without the File Open dialog,
or with this File Open, but with unchecked "Edit filter settings".
Additionally, it could allow to get rid of some duplication, like having both
"Text" and "Text (Choose Encoding)", which could be merged; or "Export as
PDF..." vs. "Export Directly as PDF".
