No
"The dialogue box the "new" button brings up says
'starting a new picture will erase the current one!'
'That's Ok' or 'never mind.' The 'never mind' is
ambiguous - maybe you don't want a new one after all,
or else you don't mind if you lose the current page.
Perhaps just 'OK, delete it' and 'No, take me back'
would be better."
"Plus, the 'erase' isn't strictly true, because, as
long as you've saved, opening a new page doesn't erase
the old one."
