hey, I just did this 5 times in a row and then understood why! when you paste a script and hit the enterkey "or" choose "Apply script" menu, the script may not save...
To fix it, make it a habit to press enter after you paste something in the script editor... - bugzilla 1920 actually... Bugzilla is marked as fixed again when it isn't ;) Hopefully Ben or someone else will reopen it ;) I added 5 votes so hopefully it gets noticed again... cheers Xavier http://monsieurx.com > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Thursday, 19 January, 2006 08:23 > To: How to use Revolution > Subject: Re: Amazing, strange, and mystifying > > changing a script and then later realizing it wasn't saved > happens OFTEN! > > Not every day but when it hits you, you can be sure you have > to revise ALL your script changes in that session. > I've done multiple changes to more than one object and then > revising noticed NONE of the scripts were saved!!! > > i think this has been reported before btw... > > cheers > Xavier Bury > > > [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote on 19/01/2006 06:34:50: > > > I have been working most of the day on a stack script modification > > that > will > > read large data files, modify the contents and write much smaller > > files > with > > the data reorganized. > > > > I restarted my Mac (G5 dual, plenty of hard drive space, 10.4.2, rev > 2.6.1), > > launched Rev, reopened the stack, and there was no part of the new > > scripting that I had done... none.
