Editor indicates change when there isn't any

DrChiper · 10-28-2022, 02:00 PM

Sometimes, when I did some editing followed by a "save", the previously changed TAB still indicates that it contents are changed and not saved.
Not a major issue, but annoying and also present in previous versions.

I can't replicate this (on text or image tabs), but I don't use the button bars instead I use keyboard shortcuts or the menu bar.

It seems unlikely, but trying doing the save with Ctrl+S.

Windows 10 22H1, Calibre 6.7.1

I cant reproduce either, if you can come up with a set of steps to repro I will take a look.

Currently I'm using Windows 11 and calibre 6.7.1.
It happens now and then during long/short edits followed by a save activity: either after pressing the save-button or using ctrl-S. It is not related to the latest calibre version as I have seen it in previous versions too. It seems to occur randomly and yesterday rather spontaneously so I could make a screen-dump. I wish I had a solid scenario to present, but I cannot, sorry.

UPDATE: I could replicate it on editing an image as indicated in my first msg. I did an image replacement, followed by a save: the save button went grey-out while the change indicator in the image TAB remained.

Confirmed - If I use the File Browser->Replace 00006.jpeg with file... option to replace the existing image with another image with the same name - the diskette icon goes grey after CTRL+S but the changed indicator (quill) persists. See attached screen shot.

If I drag/drop the replacement image into the image tab CV window it's fine - quill shows, do a Ctrl+S, quill goes away and diskette goes grey.

Great

The issue has indeed gone in version 6.8, but a new phenomenon has cropped up. When I replace 1 image, then all the TABs with opened images get the "change quill", which is not correct.
Using "Save" makes the quills disapear, which is ok.

That should take care of it
