I have a test file with a numbered object and a reference to it. If I cut out the numbered object, the reference is changed to 'Error: Reference source not found'. As soon as I paste the object somewhere, the reference is updated. There are two points at which the software could note the difference: a) Cutting out is a different operation from deletion. Put out a warning only if a numbered object to which there are references is deleted. b) If the user launches a Save operation, check if there are instances of 'Error: Reference source not found', and if so, warn the user and offer 'Cancel' (of the Save operation). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
