Description Frederic Back 2007-03-19 17:51:26 UTC 
When creating a new document from a plugin, there is no public method to change
it's name from "Unsaved Document" to something else. 

I came across this use-case when writing a plugin to manage file templates. I want gedit to create new, unsaved documents with a specific name.

patch against svn trunk (r 5577) using svn diff

I wrote a patch to implement this feature:
* GeditDocument::set_untitled_name() to set the untitled name.
* GeditTab::refresh_label() to refresh the label in the notebook.

Sorry for the really late response, this was fixed in the meantime. You can use gedit_document_set_location and gedit_document_set_short_name_for_display for it. Closing this as fixed.
