window.setModified

Syntax window.setModified (title, setting)

Params title is the name of the window whose modified status you want to set.

setting is a boolean value indicating whether the window should be considered modified or not.

Action Sets the modified status of the window named title and the object it contains.

Returns True

Examples window.setModified (@root, true) // ensure that the user will be prompted to save changes
true

window.setModified ("notepad", false); window.close ("notepad")
true

The notepad outline's changes will be discarded as it is closed.

Notes If title is a valid database address of an object that isn't currently displayed in a window, this verb will set the status of the object.

Setting a table or menubar object to be unmodified does not change the status of its subordinate material. Such objects will still be considered to be modified if any subordinate material has been changed.

An object that has never been saved -- one that was just created or imported -- cannot be set as unmodified. When applied to such an object, file.setModified will return false.
