--- Comment #3 from Raphael <drraph gmail com> 2010-12-01 21:54:56 --- No sorry that isn't the point. The steps were as above so I had at this point never saved the annotations at all and was overwriting a file I didn't care about (file.okular) not the original file.pdf which I did care about. The problem is not the overwriting per se. The problem is that a) it loses all your annotations when you choose save as instead of export it seems (without warning) and b) it then reloads automatically which has the effect of closing the document you are annotating so you can't fix the problem by then exporting correctly. To be clearer, when editing a document in word processor, say, and you save a copy on top of an old one, it will usually say "warning you are overwriting" but it doesn't mean "warning you are overwriting with something that is unusable so you will lose both the old and the new version." In fact OpenOffice does give a warning about losing formatting when you save in the wrong format which is sort of relevant and might be of interest. What I think would be better would be a message that warns that you have chosen the wrong option and are saving a document with annotations. That is you will lose all your work unless you choose 'export as' instead. Actually, even better would be if the "export as" option disappeared and "save as" just had a drop down list of formats, one of which supported annotations. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugs.kde.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug. _______________________________________________ Okular-devel mailing list Okular-devel@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/okular-devel
