Re: [Rosegarden-user] Prevent warning when closing a file
Ted, Lorenzo, thanks for you reactions! I am not asking for a mass conversion tool, I really have to listen to a log of music and I have already written a mass conversion tool. I should've been clearer in what I wanted. What I really would appreciate is an option to switch the dialog off. Or a *real* check whether the file did change because in my case the message "file has changed" is almost always wrong.

I think this is the standard behaviour (e.g. think importing a wave file in Audacity or Ardour...). I think the OP's use case really calls for some 'mass converter' midi to Rosegarden .rg tool - maybe from the command line...? :) Lorenzo. ___ Rosegarden-user mailing list Rosegarden-user@lists.sourceforge.net - use the link below to unsubscribe https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/rosegarden-user ___ Rosegarden-user mailing list Rosegarden-user@lists.sourceforge.net - use the link below to unsubscribe https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/rosegarden-user

However, there is a use case where the current behavior is helpful. If someone is converting a MIDI file to .rg, they will want a warning that they forgot to save. I think the current behavior is best. In the case of someone browsing files, they are inconvenienced by an extra click. In the case of someone converting files, they are notified that they have forgotten to complete the conversion process. I think at a conceptual level, the warning makes sense as well. The MIDI file import process creates a .rg file that hasn't been saved yet. We need to make sure that was the user's intent.
