For which application is this ticket? I didn't know it depended on the application, but I had in mind Kwrite, Kate, Kile, and Okular. Agreed the save button should only be enabled if changes are detected. also reported against kmenuedit, see bug 383293 This is working as intended. We don't disable the save button as one can use it "touch" a file. Why would anyone use kate to "touch" a file?

See the linked dupe bugs if you are interested in learning more. https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=85071 *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 95849 *** I also find it much more useful for the save button to show whether a file has been modified rather than using it to touch a file. Actually, touching an unmodified file by accident would be annoying for me since I usually sort files by date modified. Any chance of reconsidering? |
