      @d-healey this happens to me too, seems quite random.

        @mehmethand In XmlPresetBackups there will be a UIData folder. Check in there and see if you have two xml files. There should only be one. In my case I think this is the cause of the problem. I changed my project's name at some point which I think caused this.

          Was this ever solved?

          I'm running a very recent githash 68611b16 version of Hise

          I've been working on a project for months with no problems and then suddenly today this just started happening. I have no idea what caused it to happen.

          Hise does not save it's .js files anymore. I make a change, save it in hise, reopen and my change is gone. Never saved. If I check an external editor Hise is simply not saving the file when it says it is.

          @d-healey I checked in the XmlPresetBackups folder and I had projectname.xml and projectname.xmlBK in both the XmlPresetBackups and projectnameUIData subfolder. Removing the .xmlBK did nothing for this problem.

            @whoopsydoodle Included scripts are saved when you compile them, have you been doing that?

                @hisefilo Were you editing inside HISE or in an external editor? Was the script added as an include or attached as an external script to a MIDI processor?

                    @hisefilo Did you compile the script after making your changes?

                        @d-healey I have A LOT of .xml on that project. Some times it stop opening them. Solution I've found is to move xmls and UIData to an "old" folders to clean XmlPresetBackups folder.

                          I have A LOT of .xml on that project.

                          1 xml per project
                          git for managing different versions
                          .hip for little test patches.

                              @d-healey I guess I won a beer! Figured out the glitch.

                              External .js wont save if you are editing it in a "NEW TAB" even if you save the xml

                              To reproduce:

                              1 Create an external .js
                              2 Include it
                              3 Create a new view and select the .js
                              4 Edit it.
                              5 Save the xml
                              6 Close HISE

                              ....and you 5 hs of coding will be gone 🐖

                                @hisefilo You missed step 4.5 hit compile. I work with 8 editor tabs open all the time so I don't think that can be the cause.

                                  @d-healey yes you are right. Then maybe my previous glitch was just that!

                                    @d-healey ok this is super strange.

                                    The save function in Hise no longer saves any of my included .js files. But the compile button does.

                                          @whoopsydoodle I think most of the time we don't notice because we tend to automatically hit f5 after writing some code before we save.
