Save dialog for changed filter annoying #92

Closed paulelong closed 3 years ago

paulelong commented 3 years ago

I have a bunch of saved filters. I'll toggle the filters on/off based on what I'm looking for. But when I exit it prompts me to save the filter. I understand that you might want to save filters, but for 99% of the time I do not. I tend to have 10-20 windows open at a time and so when I have to shutdown, it prompts me for each one. The dialog save filter dialog does not come to the foreground, and even if it did I don't want to manually close each one.

I would like to propose a feature that does not prompt me to save filters.

I can see a couple options:

  1. Add a setting that would not “dirty” a filter when it is toggled.
  2. Add “No to all” and “Yes to all” buttons on the save prompt dialog.

1 feels pretty narrow and 2 still has extra steps that could be avoided. Are there other ideas or does anyone have a preference for one of these?

1 was my thought. 2 is cross-process and may be unnecessary after 1?

Actually, we already have this option. Setting the "Mark Filters Changed" option to "AddRemoveEdit" will cause a prompt only if a filter is added, removed, or changed. Toggling the active state will not dirty the filter list.

Please reopen if this doesn't address your need.
