Steps to reproduce
- Have a file which is not shared yet.
- Create a sharing link.
- Customize the sharing link by adding a title but do not customize anything else.
- Apply changes.
- Reopen customization options.
Expected behaviour
The downloads of the share are not limited.
Alternatively, depending on the semantics of the administration setting for default share limit, show that a limit is applied automatically when the user does not explicitly choose differently.
Actual behaviour
The default value set in the administration settings is applied. Maybe I am misunderstanding the intention of the possibility to set the default downloads limit value. I did not expect it to be automatically forced onto my newly created share. And if that is the intended behavior of the feature, I would at least expect it to be visible in the initial share customization. A user would not notice the limited downloads for created shares without looking into the share customization options a second time.
