"Save As" for unmodified document not working

Post by lnedad »

This appears to be failing sind I have upgraded to the latest release:

"If you click the Save button on the toolbar, for an unmodified document, the Save As dialog box is displayed."

I think TextPad 4 got it right. I would rather not continue to add buttons to the toolbar for functionality that can logically be add to existing options. It spite of this fact the "Tips" are still wrong which makes me think that removing this funtionality is a bug and not desired.

I agree - bring back the v4 Save button

Post by dougcrews »

The "Save" menu button used to do a "Save" if the document was changed since last save, or a "Save As" if not. I found this to be one of the features I always missed when using Word or pretty much any other document processor. It's inherently logical and a much better solution than yet another button cluttering the menu bar.

Please restore the ability to have this behavior as it was in version 4.
