| Summary | 0003662: Misleading dialog: "File > Open" | ||||
| Description | The current open file dialog is misleading. While it only shows sla and scd files, odg, sxd, eps, ps, svg, svgz, and pdf are also listed, but these can only be imported. | ||||
| Tags | No tags attached. | ||||

|
I'm not a big fan of this myself, but IIRC it is an intentional behaviour that was put in place because people wanted it. |
|
|
Why would anybody want a confusing dialog? |
|
|
PDF is the only one there that doesnt autocreate a document. |
|
|
PDF is no longer in the list, and when it does we will be able to edit PDF.. whenever that may be. File Open directly is a shortcut to creating a document of the size of the source file. |
