LMMS • Forums

This is an odd one. Normally when I end LMMS after a few changes it asks if I want to save the changes or discard them. Now in just a couple of my existing projects it just closes and throws away all my changes unless I do a Save myself. Other projects are fine. I must have messed up a setting somewhere but I can't find it.

LMMS 1.1.3 on Win7 x64

afaik there is no setting that could cause this
Have you noticed which changes you can make, without lmms asking you to save?
Unfortunately, not all are currently recognized as changes, by lmms -and i think you have pinched one of the corns in the software, with this one ...'outch'
Its a bug.

I noticed that in the top of the windows, lmms puts a star ? behind the word lmms, if there is something to save, but....
This star does not appear always, when I change something.

So I can confirm what musicbear said.

Moving things in the song editor, often does not seem to trigger the, do you want to save question.
There are more things, but this one popped right into my mind.

I think you're both right. Some of the things LMMS seems not regard as a change are adding beat/bassline entries (i.e. adding extra bars) in Song Editor, switching tracks in and out and volume/pan changes.

All projects are now fine so long as I check the * which appears behind the project name at the top. I guess it was just a coincidence that I several times only did fairly small unrecognised changes to a couple of (nearly finished) projects. Now I know what to look for it should be fine.

Thanks - Steve
