Error description

  • Problem
    When a picture object is copied to another picture object (in
    another module) using copyPictureObject(), the updated Picture
    Object turns red to show that it has changed. However, if I
    click on the 'X' to close the module, there is no message to say
    'The module has changed. Do you want to save?' - The module just
    closes and loses the changes to the Picture Object.
    
    To Reproduce
    - create an object with a picture in it
    - save module
    - select the object and run the following script:
    
    Object o=current
    Object t=previous o
    copyPictureObject (o,t)
    
    - close the DXL window
    - close the module window using the top right hand 'X'
    
    You are not prompted to save your changes
    
    Possible Workarounds
    edit the script to save the module

    When a picture object is copied to another picture object
    (in another module) using copyPictureObject(), the updated
    Picture Object turns red to show that it has changed.
    However, if I click on the "X" to close the module, there is
    no message to say "The module has changed. Do you want to
    save?" - The module just closes and loses the changes to the
    Picture Object.
    

Problem conclusion

  • The code has been changed so that a message is displayed
    prompting the user to save the module, in this scenario
