‘Save’, ‘Save & New’, ‘Save & Exit’, ‘Cancel’, ‘Cancel & Exit’
So we have a form (not a modal), in our desktop software application.
There is a View mode and an edit/create mode for this form. The view mode is a summary of all the data from the create/edit mode.
Is it too much to have the following action buttons in create/edit mode described below:
SAVE - Saves the data and returns the screen to view mode.
SAVE & NEW - Saves the shown data and clears the form for a new entry.
SAVE & EXIT - Saves the form data and backs up one screen.
CANCEL - Does NOT Save the form data and goes into view mode.
CANCEL & EXIT - Does NOT save the data and backs up one screen.
