Description Jens Reimann 2013-07-11 12:10:31 UTC

Steps to reproduce:
 * open a text document
 * open "Edit -> Compare Document"

The file open dialog is directed "anywhere". If there is no previous path then the best thing would be to initialize the path with the directory of the current document. Either the document to compare is relativily near to the current document, then it helps. Otherwise the documents path must be looked manually anyway.

Opening the dialog for the second time should remember the path of the previous compare document.

From what I can see it opens the path where the current document is now.

Ubuntu 14.04 x64
LibreOffice 4.3.0.1 rc


Setting to WFM - if you still see this problem with 4.3 please set to UNCONFIRMED and give us a bit more info. Thanks!
