Yes the report feature is directly tied to the state of the files on the disk when the report was first generated.

So the split happened and both tabs are correct. If need be verify that by opening the new tab in a CodeView tab. The new file contents are not actually written to the disk until it actually needs to be. In other words, not until a save is done, a plugin is run, etc.

This is how Sigil has always worked, otherwise opening up large epubs would be even more time consuming than they are now. The contents of the files are held in Resource Widget caches and only written to disk when needed. For speed these disk files before updating are often just placeholder text.


This is done to speed up loading of files and other things, as writing to disk can be slow
