Open as New File quirk?
Posted: 2011-07-15 05:05:25
Hi All,
Just noticed a possible quirk when trying to open a file with the "Open as New File" option selected (in NWP2 beta). If the file that you want to open-as-new is one that you already have open (e.g., because you want to make some major changes or test something out on a copy of the original and thus have the "new" and original ones to flip between), the "new" file is not opened, indeed nothing seems to happen at all. However, the feature works as advertised when it comes to a file that is not already opened.
Of course there are easy work a-rounds for this problem, but just thought I would mention it anyway.
