Diadem 2017 forced save as?

 Whenever I press the new button in any panel and I have unsaved data (Navigator, View, Report) I am presented with the "Save As" dialog and I MUST save the work before I can continue.  I am not given a choice to not save anything.  Is there a setting for this?  I would like to be able to clear the portal, or clear the view panel without saving my present work.

It must be something in one of my scripts.  After restarting, I noticed it works normally.  After running a few scripts, it stops working again.  I also noticed that some dialog boxes don't pop up anymore after running one of them (such as script error dialog boxes).  I will have to see if I can figure out exactly what and where.

I never had a problem like that. Have you reported that as a bug to NI?

When I have a reasonable idea of what is causing it, or a way to repeat the problem, I report the bugs.  This one is a bit intermittent though, I run the same scripts every day, and it does not always happen. 

Although, while solving another issue I came across the variable "CmdNoWarningDisp", and the description seems to describe what is happening.  Perhaps that variable gets set to False somewhere in the bowels of my scripts...

Good luck to find that issue!!

 

Yet, I just learned, that the newer versions tend to do funny things.

Half a year ago I did some script with DIAdem 2015 on Win7, and it worked for everyone who used it. Now I have a colleage using it on Win10 with DIAdem 2017, and he seems to get random failure messages now and then after a while. They disappear after restart. We haven't found the reason for it yet.

 

Nothing's worse than a failure that occurs at times at diffent situations.

I have experienced this same issue as well with DIAdem 2017 SP1 (64-bit) running on Windows 7.  Once this behavior starts, I also noticed I cannot close any Script tabs, e.g. "NoName(1).VBS*" without being prompted to save and actually saving the file.  I then subsequently delete the saved .VBS files in Windows.
