The most annoying thing to me about the SFP is that when I shut down it asks me if I want to save my project even if I already did. I want as few clicks as possible. Whenever *any progran* asks me this there should *always* be a box to check which says "NEVER ASK ME TO SAVE AGAIN"! I am not an idiot and if I do forget to save I would love to have the option of screwing up myself rather than constantly being bothered to save it.

Agreed, this is really annoying, Creamware please fix this.
Especially when you're shutting down your machine and Windows hangs because that Save dialog box is waiting for input in the background..

you are right, but this is not a wish for a module/device I think. Please let's not make this into a general "bugs & fixes for SFP" forum.

agreed! super fargin annoying!
also, the ability to turn off the "Are you sure you want to delete X device?" message when removing a device would be great.
"NOOOO, what the hell did I just push 'delete' for, my health?" It would be cool to have something like "safe mode" and "I know what the hell I am doing mode."

Oh, pre SFP I deleted my BigMixer twice or so from a project. Whilst I knew what I was doing, I was too fast and didn't see I clicked the mixer instead of a connection. Extremely annoying

Back in the older days we were allowed to do what we wanted to do without this famous (under developers) question "Do you really want to do what you do?" A checkbox to kill that would be VERY nice.
For me a question of democratic programming.
Happy pulsaring

All depends on your version of SFP I’ve tried several of them…
I’ve got the Buddhist SFP version and I kept waiting for a long… long time in silence and then thought, “what is going on”… my thought caused a reaction in the program and a box appeared saying: “Silence is the summit of wisdom!” and it was the only answer available… Nice answer by the way... The problem is that with this version you get the same answer for absolutely everything, for good or bad things happening into your system: so just “Shut up!”
Well, I thought it was quite a rude way to say, so I send a request for a newer different copy of the SFP from Germany, so then Creamware send me the Christian version of the SFP, and it said: “Are you sure you want to take this path, are you sure my brother you want to delete it… think about the consequences, your life, your sister, your parrot, your school”, etc... To what I answered: “Well, I don’t know”. Then immediately a second box appears saying: “Only those who go to the Lightwave synthesizer can be saved from hell, so do not dare to get even near the Inferno, particularly the one made by Wavelenth cos it’s sounds bloody nice and you shall be tempted dear son”. I said that I didn’t want to go hell, just wanted to play the Inferno for a bottom bass… Straight away a third box appeared saying: “If you do not believe it yet, get out of the program cos you are not suited to be a Christian”.
A bit confused I realized moral is sometimes a real problem, so I asked for a “non believe” SFP program, and when I reached the same stage, a box appeared and said: “Do you know who you are?” To which I answered: “No yet, why?” Then the box said: “Cos if you do not know who you are, how can you search for answers? It would be like doing mathematics with the wrong values into your numbers, like 8 valuing 3 and 2 valuing 9. Your maths will never ever have an objective total”. So I said: “This really is MY preffered program, and from now on, I will try to know myself and through it, I will get the correct answers to everything in my life

and if you do save them they dont even save correctly
