only managed to add the checkbox option to the gtk+, kde4
and native dialogs, still pending the windows one and mac, but i dont
have access to a mac, so its hard to work on that one.
Joren - also in cc here - does have and does some useful patches now and
then. No idea if he would be able and willing... just posting the
hint ;)
Another idea - by far the simplest, but less elegant -
When a user opens a template, give a popup ( :D )
You choose a template
Do you want a new file from that
template or edit the template ?
[[ New document ]] [ Edit template ]
New document = default
Ideas?
Well, that was already proposed 2 times in this thread !
;-)
First by Raphael on 09/04/2013, then myself on 11/05/2013.
Mirek and Cedric acknowledged that it should be the right way to do.
The remaining point seems to be how to ask user :
- a modal dialog ?
- an infobar ?
is 'infobar' something like that :
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Design/Whiteboards/Infobar ?
so, IMHO, I think that an infobar is too late in the opening process :
- the infobar is shown above the newly created window (the opened
template or the newly created file)
- if a click in a button of infobar closes the current window and open
another, it may disturb the user
- is it technically ok to close the current window and open another from
an infobar ?
It seems to me that a simple dialog before opening template/creating new
file is technically much simpler and more obvious for users.
