By coincedence, was thinking about this whilst looking at the menu bar 'file'. There are 'save as' and 'export' options. Wouldn't be better from a design perspective to use the 'save as' option only for odf formats, and the option 'export' for non-odf (pdf, png, html, etc.) formats? > JBF > > -- > Seuls des formats ouverts peuvent assurer la pérennité de vos documents. > > -- > For unsubscribe instructions e-mail to: users+h...@global.libreoffice.org > Problems? > http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ > Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette > List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ > All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be > deleted > -- For unsubscribe instructions e-mail to: users+h...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
