Anybody Else Get This Super Annoying Bug?

General
1

Colour values change when I use Xojo’s save restore function. So throughout my project control colours change, default colours change for variables and constants in the IDE too.

I would have assumed it would have been fixed by now but maybe nobody has reported it? It has existed for a while. I had the same issue in 2015 r1.

In order for me to enter reproducible feedback, I would have to know how I can trigger a Xojo bug that would make me use the restore function.

Who else has had this?

Thanks

Also, when I get rid of a breakpoint during runtime Xojo crashes. So that’s how the crash occurred.

I have had this & yes it is painful. Now I save every time I debug build (through a build step).

4

I tend to save regularly and use source control to be able to roll back unwanted changes

I’m doing that now. Thanks for the tip.

So anybody know if I am to create a new feedback report or this has already been dealt with through the feedback system? I didn’t find the feedback case earlier.

Feedback will force you to search for your issue before you can create a new one. If you don’t find an existing case for your issue, please make a new case.

I have been doing that for years. i have been bitten in the past.

To save or not to save, that is the question! :stuck_out_tongue:

in my build steps for ALL platforms, right before the build (actual step), is “save”.

lost too much stuff in the past hitting a bug. Especially with pre-GA versions of the IDE.

A Pascal would have said : if you save, you lose nothing, and you have a chance to win everything :wink:

You should post your script.

create a small project
run it < this causes a temporary project to be saved
now force quit the IDE
and see if a restore of this project shows the problem

The fun part is the temporary save is JUST a binary project so any binary project should also show this - but they dont that I can find

the Build Script is as follows:

DoCommand "SaveFile"

not very complicated but works very well
