Warnings when opening a script without image

Post by tomczak »

I also discovered something I want to share:

- if I open a script (not workspace), there is a warning asking me if I want to close all other scipts. I passed that by saying No.
- Then the script asks me to Open File (it was saved without file name), which I don't want to do yet, so I answer Cancel.
- There is an Alert window then asking me if I want to try again - No I don't
- Uppon which there is another alert that asks me to Aport and Clear workspace and all other images (which I can't see a reason for), so I want to say No, but my fingers click on Yes and now the whole workspace and all the other scripts are gone...

I was playing with scripts and workspaces some more, trying to better my workflow.

When I open a Workspace, I'm at peace with the message asking me if I want to replace the current workspace with the one I'm loading, or add all the scripts contained in the new workspace to those that are already there.

But, when I open a Script, which I see as just adding one more image stream to what's already in the current workspace, it still asks me to close all the other scripts.

I find this behavior of the new script narcissistic and dictatorial and I would like to petition the higher powers to make amendments as appropriate.

Added File Preferences setting to let you ask or not when loading workspace script files or script files.

Providence exists!

p.s. When the workspace is empty, all Save Script options are grayed out, but Save Workspace are not - clicking on them just doesn't do anything.

Thanks!
