In a MBX, if I use “Run Menu Command 810” (Clear cosmetic objects) I get a confirmation requester. As I do not want to see it, I simple “Delete from COSM” where cosm=layerinfo(frontwindow(),0,1) and that gives me a “quiet” run. However when I want to close the mapper, there is a requester about unsaved objects in the map, and I have to manually close that requester. It seems that if I avoid one during the run, I get another afterwards. The reason seems to be that as soon as an object is added to the cosmetic layer, that layer is flagged as holding some objects, and the flag is not removed when all the objects are deleted. It is not possible to “pack” that layer directly. The flag seems to me removed only by one of the 2 requesters mentioned above. Is ther a way to control that? Too safe in one direction and absolutely crazy in the other because if you pack a table that is the only one in a mapper, the table is withdrawn from the mapper that closes down, and all there is in the cosmetic layer is lost without warning.
