Bug ID: 143038
Summary: TIP: KEEP ORIGINAL EXTENSION NAME IN .BAK FILES
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 7.0.2.2 release
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: enhancement
Priority: medium
Component: LibreOffice
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Description:
When you check the option to save backup copies of a file, remove the original
extension and put .BAK. When recovering the file, it would be easier to know
what type of file it was simply by reading the name, even for novice users.
Actual Results:
TEST.ODS -> TEST.BAK
Expected Results:
TEST.ODS -> TEST_ods.BAK
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: No
Additional Info:
For example, a spreadsheet called TEST.ODS, when making the copy it would be
called TEST.BAK but it could well not remember or not know if it was ODS, XLS
or any other.
Ideally, TEST.ODS should be saved as TEST_ods.BAK and it would be very easy for
anyone to recover.
Also, if you use it together with the version control of Google Drive (it adds
a number in front of the name), it is very easy to drag the read-only BAK to
the desktop, rename it and check its content.
