Ironically, we just got a customer today who is buying GLX2 because Revolution's built-in script editor lost his work.

This sort of thing happens, and there is always a reason for it, but it's often very difficult to find a recipe/cultprit. There are multiple variables in the process and there is a lot going on in the IDE.

I had a couple of saves to scripts of a stack that I swear I made yet upon reopening Rev they were not made!!!

This happened today while tracking down another bug.

Hi,

It doesn't appear to be doing that on my system, also it started running so slowly so as it be unusable, so I uninstalled it. Spent a weird hour trying to figure out where my changes had got to last night!

All the Best

Ran into this and it caused me no end of grief, I'm using two versions of RunRev, 2.8.1.472 and the 2.9 Beta. I also use GTX2 and this is where the confusion came in. If you edit a script in one version of RunRev/GTX2, then open the Script in the version of RunRev/GTX2, the changes don't appear! I think that GTX2 must be caching the Script Source code somewhere that is Private to the Version of RunRev you are currently using?

In addition to Sarah and Jerry's comments I would also add that GLX2 stores the script you are working on (hasn't been compiled yet) in the object itself. So the script you are working on follows that object around. So opening the script of the object in another version of Rev running GLX2 should still show the script in progress (done this plenty of times myself).

Opening the script in the Rev script editor will NOT show the working script, however, since Rev doesn't know about GLX2 custom properties.

So if you aren't seeing changes as you move between two versions of Rev that are both using GLX2 then my guess is that you have the stack open in both versions at the same time and aren't reloading the stack into memory. If a stack file has been loaded in memory and you change the stack file on disk the changes on disk will not show up in the stack in memory until it is reloaded. Is it possible that this is what is happening on your end?
