Hi Lars,

You are right that this might be considered a WAD, sounds better than a BUG 
anyway ;-)

But saving not used settings is exactly what the workspace does, also when it 
can give the user problems. An example is the label settings for at layer where 
auto label is turned off. If the user chooses to rename the first text column 
of a table, the workspace will crash because the "unused" setting for labels is 
stored in the workspace.

And you are right, it should be pretty easy to save this setting to the 
workspace ...

Well, it's debatable whether it's a bug or a wad.

A workspace is a macro to rebuild a specific setup. Are unused settings part of 
such a setup ? Yes and no, imho, it's unclear where the dividing line is.

But it would be nice to have a workspace remember style override settings, even 
if unused, especially since it wouldn't change the end result one bit, and 
would be extremely simple to implement (just output them!).

Well, with MIPro.COM apparently again in the front seat, maybe a feature wish 
list is relevant once again ?

Best regards / Med venlig hilsen
