Hi lanas,

there are 4 possibilities which come to my mind:

1 - you're using an image which we don't know, alternately: I can see a message somiliar to your's only if on windows and hit alt-f4.

2 - you're indeed on windows doing alt-f4 then there is a bug

3 - the message says "Save changes before quitting?" then this is so because you selected plain "Quit" from the World menu. In case you did the latter, perhaps your mouse thinks it clicks 1-2 pixels off and the menu is not what you expected?

4 - I cannot reproduce the message you cite 'Quit without saving the image', can you tell us precisely where and what you click and what kind of widget is then talking to you.

Are you absolutely sure you haven't accidentally, in the last second,
hit one of the wrong pixels, i.e., one belonging to "yes"?

There's a UI loop in there which is nevertheless not very graceful I think.

The first option in this sequence is the user clicking the choice:

'Quit without saving the image' (or somesuch, I do not want to change language
just to get the right string that is displayed)

And then, very surprisingly, after the user has made this choice, another
choice pops up that asks: 'Save image ? yes/no/cancel" (idem).

I find this to be squarly not straight, so to speak. It is confusing for any user to be asked about saving the image when the user has already expressed
the will of NOT saving the image.  Either remove this option in the first
place, or remove the additional choice of saving the image.

My two cents.

Cheers,
Al
