<pre>Description:
When closing a document which is not saved, we have this classic dialog box:
<a href="https://imgur.com/YwNzfwk">https://imgur.com/YwNzfwk</a>
"Your changes will be lost ...":
[S]ave
[D]on't save
[C]ancel
Having to remember keyboard shortcuts [S] and [D] is inconsistent (at least on
Windows) with other programs.
Probably 90% programs use the standard:
[Y]es
[N]o
Cancel
It's true for MSOffice, for SublimeText, etc.: <a href="https://imgur.com/mVr9585">https://imgur.com/mVr9585</a>
If every program has different default shortcuts it creates a UX burden (see
<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Principles_of_user_interface_design">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Principles_of_user_interface_design</a>) for the user
to remember new different shortcuts for every program.
---
TL;DR: Proposal: use the Y / N standard for this dialog box, it will improve
the UI/UX.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a new document
2. Write some text
3. Close Writer
4. See the "Your changes will be lost..." dialog box
Actual Results:
Standard Y/N shortcuts don't work (obviously)
Expected Results:
Y or N keyboard shortcut should be able to answer to such a dialog box, as with
(nearly) all other software.
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: No
Additional Info:
(Personal opinion: It's on these little details
(<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Principles_of_user_interface_design">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Principles_of_user_interface_design</a>) that we see
how polished UI/UX is for a program)</pre>
