Bug in 0.69?

[bruarm]

I just finished a dtab file and when I clicked Save there was an Overflow error, the application closed and I lost what I had done.  As a matter of fact the file disappeared!!  I had to take my last backup file and use it and start my last edits over again.

Unfortunately, everything disappeared so fast I couldn't read the exact message on the message box (sorry).

I think it may have had something to do with the length (number of bars) of the song.

How long was it ?

How long was it ?

Sorry, I don't remember.  When I fix it up in the next couple of days, I'll do a save every 4 bars or so until it pukes again and let you know.

Cool, the song buffer in v0.69 and bellow is limited to 255 bars.. So it'd have to be longer than that to make it die.

It's could an issue with section copy section routines.  Which can stuff up the time sigs in certain situations.

You can save 134 bars of 12/8 time.  When you add the 135th bar, it pukes (overflow '6' message).
