Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 94464
Make "Update styles from template" a non-modal Message Box
Last modified: 2013-08-07 15:31:33 UTC
As I open the writer by a document the program says the used template is outdated and asks whether I want to take the current template or not. Unfortunately the alert is a modal window. That means I can't scroll in the document. So there is no way to find out which is the best answer. OK, I truly hate these alerts, which block everything until you click at least on the cancel-button. You have absolute no information about what you are doing. So in your practice of using software you just press randomly one button. Why can't be this alert a normal one, which only floats above ? So you can find out which version of the document you have an which template you want to use.
Reassigned to requirements.
