Sometimes and non-reproducible changes I have done in source code are not saved.

Mostly it works but in estimated 5% my changes are lost.

If I change text I always type ctrl-s, mostly two or three times. If the changes are big I type spaces and save again. I reenter the source code and look for my changes.

BUT whatever I do, sometimes FME "forgets" my changes, today it forgot it, even when I ran the translation (in the control before my changes were made).

Has anybody else such problems? Is there a "correct" way to save the sources or a workaround for it?

I actually use the version 2016.0 (in former versions the problem was the same)

Hope, anybody can help

I use the PythonCaller a lot, but I've never encountered this issue.

Can you explain, what exactly you do to save?

I click Ok to close the Python editor and then Ctrl-S to save the workspace, mostly. Nothing special at all.

I recon that you have closed the python caller by the top right X close button which does not save the changes you have done. As I have done that a few times and in other transformers too.

no, sorry. if it had been so easy I would not have asked ... Always "OK"- Button

It probably sounds as if I was a beginner. But it is not and I know, that I must use "OK", save and so on. But from time to time I loose source code and do not know, how this might happen ...

 

 


I have also recently observed this occurrence in FME 2024.1 (Build 24619).
