You even can edit WITH this bug, but die dialogue tells you you can't... see description above.

It also changed for me. I am not aware of any updates to LS or macOS on that machine, but the behaviour is improved: Now, when clicking the EDIT Button in the blue ribbon, a confirmation dialogue opens, saying sth. like "You can't edit this doc. lacking write permission, do you want to open a copy?" So, the main issue is resolved, but the confusing dialogue upon opening persists. I still prefer the way things happen on Windows, where you don't get neither the Dialogue upon opening, nor the one when switching to Edit-Mode. Sure, these dialogues make it clearer to the user what's actually happening in the background. But i think the potential to confuse users and/or interrupt their workflow is not worth it. Yes, without any dialogues, some users might get confused if after an edit they can't save the doc. to the original location. Maybe, a good compromise would be to remove the dialogue on opening and keep the one on switching to Edit-mode. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
