(2017-11-03-001) SEVERE BUG - Changes made in SHOW not saved

Post by PolDavril »

Hi,

There is a severe bug when changes are made in SHOW : the modifications are NOT SAVED in some circumstances.

Here is the way to reproduce it.

Step 1 : close Daslight and restart it
Step 2 : in EDIT, alt-click the Scene to create a button in SHOW
Step 3 : save the file (under any filename)
Step 4 : in SHOW, enter the edition mode, select the Scene button, right-click to duplicate it
Step 5 : in File menu, select "Save" (or ctrl-S) but the SHOW FILE IS NOT SAVED and the second button is lost

This issue occurs also when other changes are made : change button position, change button size, ...

It seems that an internal "changes made ?" flag is not updated for these actions.

My advice to users : as long as this bug is not fixed, take care to do a "Save As" instead of a "Save", even if you want to save the changes to the same show file.
