Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 48452
New Database not remember the last file opened
Last modified: 2013-02-07 22:33:58 UTC
I have the Base already opened in many windows (several database opened). Then create a new database, it will not remember my previous directory where I open the file dialog (always go back to My Documents). By the way, this file dialog has some non-english in the bottom.
clu->vyho: 1. not a bug but a feature enhancement (writer and the other application work the same way by design) 2. the file save dialog came from your operating system (not oo), so i guess that you use an non english operating system -> no bug thx
Thank you for the comment. With respect to 2, some how only OOo has these non-english characters (and a check box). I tried couple other apps such as notepad, and I don't see these things. The version I use is Windows Xp, with regional setting point to English (United States). If you have any suggestion or idea that I can do, please let me know. Thanks.
regarding 2: File a new issue and attach a screenshot. You can switch to OOo's own file dialogs using Tools|Options -> OOo -> General
The non-english name at the bottom file dialog problem is fixed with build 680m100.
MS Access shows in recent list also newly created databases. So in Base it should work similarly ;-)
this is a RFE (request for enhancement), isn't it?
