Description Victor Porton 2017-07-18 14:19:06 UTC 
Open several files and show Documents sidebar.

Select one of the files in the sidebar by left click. Then right click another file in the sidebar. Close the context menu by clicking outside the sidebar.

Now the file you right clicked is on blue background in the sidebar. But if you click Save button, the file which you previously clicked with left button will be saved instead of the file with blue background.

It is very confusing (and sometimes may even lead to data loss) that a file different of that one with blue background is saved.

Please ensure that Save button (and other operations) always (when the Documents sidebar tab is visible) work on the file which is on blue background in the sidebar, not on some other file.
