I think, the motivation to diverge was that it is particularly difficult to decide when a viking document is modified or not. In other words, when the user considers that its document is modified. For example, does the user expects to save its document when it simply open and move viewport to left? But I agree with Greg: we need to restore standard notions. The question is: what about detecting document modifications. I'm not sure it will be easy to implement something to detect changes. Any idea? Should we always open a dialog like « Do you want to save your work? Yes/No » at closing? 2010/1/5 Greg Troxel <g...@ir.bbn.com>: > > One significant bug is that ^Q writes the data file, when human > interface guidelines say that it should simply quit, perhaps promting > whether or not to save the file if modified. > The notion of > > ^S - save file associated with current window > ^W - close current window, prompting if modified. > exit if this is the last one. > ^Q - close all windows and exit, prompting if modified > > is very well established as the right behavior for programs, and I don't > see any good reason that viking should diverge. > > -- Guilhem BONNEFILLE -=- JID: gu...@im.apinc.org MSN: guilhem_bonnefi...@hotmail.com -=- mailto:guilhem.bonnefi...@gmail.com -=- http://nathguil.free.fr/ -- Guilhem BONNEFILLE -=- JID: gu...@im.apinc.org MSN: guilhem_bonnefi...@hotmail.com -=- mailto:guilhem.bonnefi...@gmail.com -=- http://nathguil.free.fr/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Verizon Developer Community Take advantage of Verizon's best-in-class app development support A streamlined, 14 day to market process makes app distribution fast and easy Join now and get one step closer to millions of Verizon customers http://p.sf.net/sfu/verizon-dev2dev _______________________________________________ Viking-devel mailing list Viking-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/viking-devel Viking home page: http://viking.sf.net/
