Hi
When I open LyX 1.6 format file with filename *.16.lyx in RC1 and make
some changes and save the file.
Lyx 2 RC1 saves quietly file in new Lyx 2.0 format without name change
or even a warning. Now I have file named *.16.lyx in Lyx 2.0 format.
Shouldn't we have same kind of dialog that e.g. Word has when one
tries to save files in older version's format?
This is a good idea, and it wouldn't be that hard to do: (i) When we
open the file, set a Buffer flag if we have to convert from an older
format; (ii) when we try to save, check the flag, and pop a dialog if
it's set.
Can you add this to trac, please?
Could the flag simply be a read-only flag? Thus forcing users to "save
as".
If the read-only flag is set, you can't even edit. That seems overkill.
