- Rob,
-
- If there is enough disk space to save a _copy_ of a document, SaveViaTemp will
- always execute irregardless of what you assign to the TDocument field
- fSaveInPlace. fSaveInPlace tells MacApp what to do only when there is _not_
- enough space to save a copy.
-
- Michael on CIS wanted to be able to just update changed resources in the
- original file, leaving the unchanged resources alone, and preventing
- SaveViaTemp from creating a new file to save in.
-
- I can’t think of a straight forward way to solve Michael’s problem without a
- bunch of overrides or completely intercept TDocument.Save with one override. I
- guess this problem runs up against the limits of TDocument and file I/O that
- Curtis and others have mentioned in previous links.
