I think I found the problem: the saving works fine, but it takes quite a while. The dialog showing the progress doesn't appear anywhere close to the gscan2pdf window, but flashes up in the top-left corner of the left-most head in my triple-head setup. Since I run gscan2pdf on the right-most head, I never noticed it. So I hit save, and the file was created, but not noticing the dialog, I assumed it was done and had failed to write the file contents. Since I can quit gscan2pdf without problems or requiring reconfirmation while a save operation is in progress, I left the programme before it was done writing, thus losing the data. I see two things that should be done to address this: - make sure the progress dialog appears normally - make sure that the application can't be quit, or at least requires confirmation when quitting, if a save is in progress. Maybe all that needs to be done is postponing the clearing of the dirty bit until the save is complete. -- .''`. martin f. krafft <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> : :' : proud Debian developer, author, administrator, and user `. `'` http://people.debian.org/~madduck - http://debiansystem.info `- Debian - when you have better things to do than fixing systems the english take english for granted. but if we explore its paradoxes, we find that quicksand can work slowly.
