Indicate modified document in document selector

Post by savoiu »

I find the feature of being notified when another process has modified an open file useful. However if that process continuously (at some interval) modifies the file then I'm bombarded by a barrage of 'Do you want to reload?' messages that make it impossible to use TP.

How about having an extra option for modified files where the fact that a file was modified is only marked by an icon in the document selector and no question is asked. Then whenever I see fit I can then select that file and apply 'Revert'.

another idea on the same vein (like the prior poster, I like the feature 90% of the time but 10% of the time it is super annoying).

What about putting in a delay of X seconds on the update message. The clock would start ticking from the time it finished reloading (not when it started loading since it can take a few seconds to reload).

The other posters option is fine with me too.

Thanks
Kevin
