In schematic editor, no verification of whether project saved or not.
PCB side works every time, However, It's either intermittent or all the time , there is
no verification of a save attempt in Schematic Capture.

It shows the
`Connecting to server...`
`Save success`
panels if you save a changed schematic but if there are no changes then nothing happens.
Maybe the user experience could be improved by popping up a `Nothing to save` or `Nothing has changed` message like it did in earlier versions?

Andy,
The difference in versions I found is that the toolbar in this version hides the information on whether the
file has saved or not. It's an easy work-around to just close the tool bar, to make sure it saves.
It would be less of a issue for me but for the lousy somewhat intermittent connection we have here.
I have lost work in the past by shutting down for the night after a (uknown) failed save, so I make sure to check
every time now. In PCB editor it works the same as always.
Thanks,
-Lisa D
I guess I was unclear on that one.
It isn't a toolbar actually, it's better described as the information/ attributes bar
that changes depending on what you are looking at. X/Y coordinates, PCB
canvas properties, hole properties Etc.
The Connection/ Save report box does not come up over that info bar in the new version,
rather it comes up, but can only be seen if the info bar is hidden. I use that information so much,
I have had no reason to close it until now.
I have another question for you that I will post in the PCB Forum.
Ah, OK Lisa.
The toolbar you refer to is the Attributes panel or just the right-hand panel.
Thanks for the tip about the Save dialogue being hidden behind it: I hadn't noticed that was what was happening.
