"Cancel" save should not delete changes to note

Open ab0oo opened this issue 4 years ago • 1 comments

This morning, I made several changes to a note, then wanted to switch to another note. I got the modal popup that says "You have made changes to this note -- Do you want to save them" with the choices "Cancel" or "Save Changes". I saw that I needed to fix a typo in the note I'd edited, and hit cancel, at which time Notes removed all my edits and took me to the second Note. It's probably better design to make a third choice, or make it abundantly clear what's going to happen: Abandon Changes, Cancel (i.e. stop this action, return to the last state), or Save Changes. Fortunately, I didn't lose a LOT of work, but I could see how that could be dangerous and frustrating to someone that made a lot of changes. Thanks for considering this. John Gorkos

Hi John, Thanks for the suggestion - You're right!: "Abandon Changes, Cancel (i.e. stop this action, return to the last state), or Save Changes." I'll see about implementing this in the next release.
