Why do I get the sequence reloading warning message? Is there a way to default it?

[lc_garza]

I am running several test sequences simultaneously. I modified the test sockets used in the TS process models to specify the sequence file that I want to run in each socket. However, when I trigger the execution, no matter which sequences I have opened, I always get this message:

"The file 'Sequence File.seq' has been modified outside of the sequence editor. Do you want to reload it? Yes/No"

This message appears only the first time that I execute after opening TS. Once I click No, I can continue without problems (However, choosing Yes would freeze TS).

I don't know exactly why I am getting this message. I suppose somewhere when the test socket gets initialized, the sequence gets loaded
in memory, and then compares it with the file and ask for reloading.

Is there a way to always answer NO to this reloading prompt message? Or any clue about why am I getting this prompt?

Thanks.

Hello,

Unfortunatelly there is no option to automatically reload the sequences that got modified outside the current application.

I'm not quite sure why you are getting this message. However, since you mentioned you modified the process model, I have a couple of suggestions:

1) Make sure you are not modifing your sequences at runtime. Usually you get this message when you modify properties under SequenceFile. This is the File object and if you change it, TS may reload it.

2) When you call your sequences, also make sure you have the same prototype for the parameters your sequence is expecting and the ones you are sending.

Maybe you can gice us some more details about how you executing this sequences and how you modified the process model.
