--- Comment #17 from Luke Kendall <[email protected]> --- I'm happy to try a special version to try this out. I understand and agree with both of Justin L's comments (#14 & #15). I think this point is especially interesting: -if the save of a non-active document affects the working document (likely true) - then having staggered saves would actually be even more disruptive I have direct experience of editing multiple related long documents together, and can state that one unsaved and modified document will trigger an autosave for all such docs. For me personally, the autosave is so disruptive, on a long document with lots of comments for example, because it can take so long, is that when you get caught because you forget to manually save doc A after a change and went back to doc B, that when you're forced to stop and wait by an autosave, it reminds you to manually save the docs you forgot to, and then continue work on whichever doc is your main focus of attention. So I'm hopeful that in practice the change will reduce the number of interruptions despite the truth of Justin's point in comment 14. Regarding comment 15, that's completely correct behaviour - although it seems to me, if Writer saw that the modification time of the doc was older than the last autosave it had done for that doc, that another autosave is redundant and just wasteful of time and energy. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
