"After 'Save as', change filename" should be "After 'Save as', show new file", since no filename is changed.

...or maybe "After 'Save as', switch to new file".

This menu option is especially confusing. When it is enabled, the Save As dialog box displays every time you select Save or Save As or click the Save button on the toolbar. This lets you save the same file multiple times under different names. For many, this would be an inconvenience. I certainly would not want the Save As dialog box coming up every time I want to save a file and would prefer to keep this disabled.

Perhaps this option should be changed from...

After 'Save as', change filename

to...

For 'Save', use 'Save as'

or...

Use 'Save as' for 'Save'

SeaMaiden,

This is another problem...
'Save' toolbar button looks like 'Save', but it's 'Save as'.

I suggest (again) add also 'Save' toolbar button.

:) Hi all !

• Please, just give a glance HERE ;)
- IMHO, something like : « “After Save as…”, change the file-name in the title-bar »
- It's that I wrote in French, and it's quite meaningful…

:mrgreen: Kind regards,
Claude
