Opening A File - Wants Me To Save?

Whenver I open a file just to view the contents, The IDE wants me to save that same file again even though I didn't do anything to the file.

I know its not a big deal to 'click' no or yes. but it does get annoying.

I disabled Code Completion but that still doesn't work.

It happens As Soon As Opening The File. Didn't even click inside the editor and the little '*' comes up beside the filename. I'm hoping that this is a bug and not a feature?

I'm using 3.3 Trial.

Any ideas on disabling this?

Thanks

Actually, it _never_ ask you to save file if it was not modified.
File can be implicitly modified if for example you checked "Optimal Fill" in the editor options.

Optimal Fill is unchecked.

I just don't understand that if I wanted to highlight a function in (for example: User.php), all I do is drag my mouse and highlight and Copy (Not Cut) the function, how does that modify the file User.php?

I've Never seen that in any other editor before.

Well, if you have either "Optimal Fill" checked or "Keep trailing blanks" unchecked the editor may modify the file for you. For example, Optimal Fill replaces spaces left to the first non-space character to minimal number of tabs and spaces. Similarly, Keep trailing blanks when unchecked removes all spaces right to the last non-space character.
BTW, it's not a phped innovation, raither common features available in many other editors.

I did have the 'Keep Trailing Blanks' option unchecked and that was it. It was 'automatically' modifying the file. I checked it, and and it works great now! It was annoying.

I agree. I was just looking for an alternative in the options as to why that was happening.

Thanks!
