https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=68565 --- Comment #4 from yallabala...@gmail.com --- More reasons: Security, Privacy: certain data should be kept inside the same secure locations. e.g. A remote server, external device, mounted FS, etc. p.s. I lost 2 files in the past year, due to backup issues in the ~/. folder tree. Backups should be clear an visible, and within the same scope as the original. This is a serious issue. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.___ Libreoffice-bugs mailing list Libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-bugs

https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=68565 --- Comment #3 from Howard Johnson --- As one workaround to this problem, a suggestion has been floated that backups might be done with a macro enhancement to help fix this issue without any change to LO, ref: https://ask.libreoffice.org/en/question/88856/suggeston-for-location-of-backup-files/?answer=89030#post-id-89030 I want to make two points about this possible alternative, both in support of the direction of the enhancement suggestions here by eBatch & Maximiliano Castañón: 1) As Ratslinger points out, and as relating to a macro based backup method enhancement option: "Base is not included as this presents other challenges." In other words, this alternative does not appear to presently work for base users. 2) Backups should not work well only for advanced users able to setup a macro, rather a quality backup should work right out of the box, especially for inexperienced users. I have seen far too many users report loss of data in the ask.libreoffice.org support site. In the 6 month's I've been active there, I'm guessing I've seen between 10 and 20 posts of people who had a loss and apparently didn't have any backups to recover from. Most, if not all of these appeared to be people with low Karma (e.g. 1), or in other words, new users just learning LO. I think a good, easy, and slick backup is essentially to retaining new users. If one and only one thing works in all of LO, it should be the backup tools. So yes, I think the backup can and should be significantly improved, and I think this is a high priority (even thought I have many other things on my wish list for Base). --- As I transition to LO Base from about 20 years of using Access, I very much miss the "Back Up Database" button that my Access has. ref: https://support.office.com/en-us/article/Back-up-a-database-483D3D0A-4786-4BFF-9F70-B11BAEA520A7?ui=en-US&rs=en-US&ad=US&fromAR=1 I want a better solution for Base that does not force me to keep re-naming my application using Save-As, which is the only solution we have right now for successive backups as I develop Base applications. e.g. Save As: MyApplication-01.odb Save As: MyApplication-02.odb Save As: MyApplication-03.odb etc. -- Also there is another pitfall with the current Base Save-As method: If you do a Save-As while you are in a form, it saves the form, not the database, creating an *.odt file, and fooling you into thinking you have a database backup. -- In particular, I want something like Access has: A menu item which creates a backup on my command, and allows me to modify the auto-generated place and name before committing the save. I recall back in the early days, when Access did not yet have it, and I thought it was a great improvement when it was added, and I have loved the way they got this right, and it has saved me hundreds of times when things went wrong. It's simple and quick. It's time LO has such a backup I think. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.___ Libreoffice-bugs mailing list Libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-bugs
