I am considering to remove all the help files too since it is not used anymore. It will reduce the diff a lot. > > Comments on the settings UI: > > * In the English translation, perhaps better to use the term "autosave" instead of "save automatically". It's a well-established word for this kind of functionality (and it also takes up less space in the tab). Should I do this just in the dialog or the File > Save Automatically menu item too? > * I now discovered that NetBeans has a "reformat on save" option. How does this interact with the autosave function? As far as I can tell, it works nicely, since this module just call the already existent save actions, or the save cookie in it document for focus lost or save all action. > * To save a tab in the Options dialog, it might be good to merge the contents of the "On Save" and "Save Automatically" tabs. Just have a single tab called "Saving", and one heading called "Format on Save" and another one called "Autosave". To merge the two tabs, probably I will need to merge both modules. Is it desirable? If so, I can do this without a problem. > * How does the "save on focus" feature interact with "save files every X minutes"? If "Save files when focus is lost" is checked, are files _also_ saved every X minutes? Perhaps get rid of the "use save automatically feature" checkbox, instead having one checkbox for "Save files when focus is lost" and one checkbox for "Save files every X minutes". Both actions are designed to be independent. If both are checked the save operation will be invoked for the event that happens first. Do you mean the UI to be something like this?  ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
