Soulver is great, but there's one feature that seriously makes me hate using it.
I often open up "scratchpad" text documents. I Paste some text, edit it, Select All, then Cut. I press CMD-W to close the window. Because the document is blank, I'm not prompted to save the unsaved File.
If I try to do the same thing with Soulver, when I close the (blank) window the app pops up a modal dialog asking me where I want to save the (blank, never-saved, scratchpad-only) File. So annoying.
It seriously prevents me from quickly opening up or using Soulver just because I don't want to deal with clicking through that modal once I'm done. I'll just use a Text document instead or put the math equation into the Chrome omnibox.

- nuclear_eclipse 7y agoSoulver 3 doesn't do that anymore, mainly because everything is synced to icloud, rather than being saved locally.
- guan 7y agoThere is a setting for “Suppress save warning for unsaved documents”. Would this address your need, or do you only want to suppress the modal when the document is blank? I have the setting left on because I am also annoyed by this, and I rarely need to save my Soulver documents.
- roryokane 7y agoIn the save confirmation dialog of any Mac app, the keyboard shortcut Command-Delete (⌘⌫) chooses Delete for you. I found such dialogs much less annoying after I learned that. So when you want to close a window without saving: 1. Hit ⌘W 2. Wait a moment for the dialog to open 3. Hit ⌘⌫
