I'm not sure what the title should have been?
And I hope I can explain what is missing when saving.
If I import an image into DP19 (and previous versions I think), make changes to the image, and then I normally close that file.
It's at this point you are asked if you want to save the changes.
But, I also used to get an option that asked if I wanted to keep the original or discard the original.
Does anyone know how this option can be turned back on?
WDP 16.2
Open new document, drag a picture in, resize and cut a bit off. Close the tab. I am asked if I want save, I say yes and name it. Nothing else is offered.
If I have something on the clipboard I am asked if I want to discard when I close the whole program though. I don't remember it ever being any different, but I can't go back more than a couple of years.
Trust me.
If I had remembered to remove the tick from the box that says 'don't show again' this option that I'm taling about will still be available to me.
DP 16.2 is the latest version. But I quibble.
I do not recall ever seeing what you are describing. I can confirm Chris's observation about keep or discard objects on Clipboard.
Now this is really biting the bullet but it will get your requestor back (I think) if it ever was there. Window > Control Bars > Reset.
This is a bit draconian and you will lose any custom settings.
I have a default template I use that has some settings and XaReg can adjust some of the registry settings.

First, you get the option to choose whether you want to save the changes.
Then, when you choose 'save' the changes, you get the option to 'Save original' or 'Discard original'.
Cheers, Chris M.
Ah, because you're saving the project with the same name as the original. The penny doth drop.
well at least you got this issue sorted Rik
I'm still wonering if the other save issue is linked to master copies - it is strange that the program does not have permission to overwrite a file that is open in it
That's just an option that I wanted to turn back on.
Or, to know how to turn on/off.
The other 'Save' problems is THE REAL PROBLEM.
Which, Magix/Xara don't seem to care about.
Curious why this post is in this forum category?

My question was about an option that I wanted to turn back on in Xara.
However, it's nothing to do with:-

But, I'm open to suggestions and it may be that the MOD of this forum may move it.

Well, it really is graphics and animations discussion, then I'm sure the MOD will move the thread.
