            Bug ID: 128704
           Summary: file:reopen of file:reread should be supported for
                    when open files are changed externally
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: medium
         Component: Calc
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: dav1dblunk3tt at hotmail.com

Description:
I need to use LO to view a spreadsheet generated and modified externally.

There is no clean way for LO to detect the underlying file has changed or offer
a "reopen" or "reread" service.  This results in a clumsy: close,
file:open:recent etc etc dance where a reread service would be nice.

Steps to Reproduce:
open a file, change the underlying file, LO doesn't offer a reopen/reread or
detect the changes.

Actual Results:
open a file, change the underlying file, LO doesn't offer a reopen/reread or
detect the changes.

Expected Results:
open a file, change the underlying file, LO doesn't offer a reopen/reread or
detect the changes.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No
