Hi @xanadiu, I've done some test and when clicking in the Exit
button of the diagram editor a dialog will popup asking confirmation to discard changes.
I've also tried a whole reload of the page (Redmine URL, but the diagram editor is shown) and the the dialog pops up correctly.
My tests were done with Firefox.
Have you some use case where the dialog does not appear?
Hi @mikitex70, sorry for being lazy in not specifying the browser information...
I am working on a Mac (macOS 11.6) and discovered these behaviours (after altering and not explicitly saving the diagram):
Web browser | Reload the window | Close the window | Click on Exit |
---|---|---|---|
Safari 15.0 | No warning Diagram editor disappears Redmine content is shown Changes are lost |
No warning Window is closed Changes are lost |
Alert (website specific) "All changes will be lost!" with Discard Changes and Cancel options √ |
Firefox 92.0.1 | Alert (browser specific) informs user about unsaved changes √ | Alert (browser specific) informs user about unsaved changes √ | Alert (website specific) √ |
Chrome 92.0.4515 | Alert (browser specific) informs user about unsaved changes √ | Alert (browser specific) informs user about unsaved changes √ | Alert (website specific) √ |
So the problem seems to correlate with Safari...
The check for unsaved diagram is done fully in the diagram editor. Maybe you can try to open an issue on drawio. Before that, do a simple check: go to https://app.diagrams.net/, draw a simple diagram and check with Safari and another browser if it asks for unsaved data.
No more feedback, closing this issue.
I wonder if it is possible to prevent the user from accidentally reloading or closing the diagram editor when there are unsaved changes. I know that some browsers ask for confirmation when reloading or closing a page with a form that contains user-entered data. Maybe there is a hook to use this while editing. Or would that be a request for the diagram editor and out of scope for this plugin?
