Previously, John and I wrote stuff:

In Ledit, you have to do /TC to set the center.  But since in the Edit/Turn
menu, set center has the "S" underlined, I figured alt-s would be consistent
(while alt-c would be more similar to Ledit, either one would be great).

Ah.  Nope, that S is just a shortcut once you get into the Turn submenu.

So could you use alt-c (or s) for center setting?

Yes, they could.

That may be what's happening.  Is there an option in the editor to not write
the file automatically?

No, but there could be.  Since LEdit uses E for refreshing, would the
keystroke for a refresh be alt-E?

I don't think I've ever used the E command.  Does that reload the current
model file or just redraw what's already loaded?

It's the "Erase and Redraw" command.  It just redraws the current file.

Currently, what actions trigger the write?

Should be anything that changes the file, or when you click around.

Can you isolate click-drag so that it wouldn't write in that case?

It shouldn't be writing in that case -- in the Win/VB-world, click
happens after you let up on the mouse button (heck, it happens after the
double-click delay occurs).  Since you haven't released the button while
dragging, there's no click.

I think I see the problem -- when the selection changes, the poll-file
is updated.  And I'll bet the SelChange event occurs as soon as the
mouse button goes down (because the previous selection is released).  I
need to add logic to not rewrite the poll-file while the mouse button is
down.  I'll get on that for the 2.0.3 update.  Which needs to be soon,
I've been told there are VB5-runtime file dependencies in my code. :O

Look forward to seeing it (esp. if you make the download smaller :)

Yep, I'm playing with that.
