This applies to all versions of Flash, which is why I decided to rant here:
[r]Why is it that if you simply click on the empty Stage of a new document Flash assumes you made changes? I hate having to say no everytime I try to close an Untitled-x because I simply clicked on the screen.
yeah… and when that happens to me I get like confused :crazy: … thinking "didf I do anything or not… hmmm… "
this is confusing… takes me 3x more time closing flash than it would…
and why does the registration point appear in the center if I’m converting something to a movieclip and setting it’s reg point to something else than the center of it.

I’m one of those people who likes to save empty documents. using CTRL+S on a new empty document wont work because it hasnt been “modified”. So what I tend to do… and have to do, is click in the doc first, then CTRL+S. Using CTRL+SHIFT+S (save as) isnt an option because I never use that anyway - any save I do is always CTRL+S; its a natural way to save. This is even more an annoyance with AS2 classes since I want to be sure right off the bat that I save it using the right name since it has to be saved under the same name as the class name itself. So I could complain that you need to click to have to save a document using save.
I wonder if anyone from Macromedia knows about this forum, and if so, if they might one day stumble upon this post, and say: “Hmm… we could fix that… why didn’t we think of this before?” Then again, when I think of any programmers working in a commercial environment, a vision of the old Viking ships springs to mind, where there are 500 slaves chained to the oars, with a large man pounding the rythym out on a massive drum…
So I doubt any of them get a chance to really think about things sometimes…
