          Issue ID: 125890
        Issue Type: DEFECT
           Summary: The "Keep Current Format" (versus ODF ) option is
                    misleading - it should be "Keep Selected Format"
           Product: General
           Version: 4.1.1
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: ui
          Assignee: issues@openoffice.apache.org
          Reporter: richardbrucebaxter@hotmail.com

The "Keep Current Format" (versus "Save in ODF") option is misleading - it
should be "Keep Selected Format" or "Save in Selected Format".

To replicate the issue;
1. ensure "Warn when not saving in ODF or default format" is enabled (Tools -
options - Load/Save - General)
2. Create new document/spreadsheet
3. Save - select file type as .DOC/.XLS/.CSV (anything but ODF)
4. Note the "Keep Current Format" option (versus "Save in ODF") is misleading -
it should be "Keep Selected Format" or "Save in Selected Format"

--- Comment #3 from richardbaxter <ri...@hotmail.com> ---
Note if the file is saved already (in format x, e.g. odt), and then the user
selects to save as (in format y, e.g. .doc), then the "keep current format"
option is especially confusing. In this example selecting "keep current format"
will save in .doc rather than maintaining the current format .odt.
