Re: [spyder] Editor overwrites a file with old content

[Pierre Raybaut]

This reminds me of some bug I've ran into a while ago. Is it somehow related to screen splitting? (In other words, was the editor splitter vertically or horizontally before this bug happened?)

I suspect that something's wrong with the document cloning which is done when the editor has been split in two or more parts.

Hello,

This is a fairly serious problem which happened to me now for the second time. It seems intermittent, so I am sorry that I cannot provide the exact steps for replicating it. I can tell you what happened in both cases though:

I edit a file called "data.py", which is saved to disk. I run it, edit and save several times without problems. Then - without doing anything I can pinpoint as special - when I press F5 to run the file, Spyder asks me to save the file and brings up a dialog for it. I had saved the file just a moment before and not changed anything inbetween.In the saving dialog, I select the file it's already saved under ('data.py'), get asked if I want to overwrite the old file and accept this. Here is where the bug occurs: Upon saving, the contents of the file change to something entirely different, seemingly an old version of the same file. The file contents are changed both on disk and in the editor, and so they are gone for good.

Best wishes
Martin Gustafsson
