Hi,
If a show file has a read-only attribute for safety reasons, the changes are not saved but there is no warning message.
If the user forgets that the file has been set to read-only in Windows explorer, all changes are lost, although the user believes that all is saved...
It would be a good idea to check if the show file has the read-only attribute after "Open" and "Recent files" and display a warning message.
Before "Save" and "Save as", a similar message should be displayed, telling the user that it's not possible to save the file on itself.

Hey Pol,
This is a very specific case, where the user would manually set a protection on the show file. This isn't Daslight4's thing to know.
