Python tool looses all of my changes

abe_ibanez

Hello, 

I have been having an issue with the Python tool ever since I started using version 2025.1. 

Whenever I make modifications to the notebook within the python tool and then click back on the canvas, all of my changes disappear. I have tried:

- Saving the workflow before clicking out of the python tool

- Using the save button within the python tool

- Selecting "Save All" within the python tool

- Every combination of the above three

The frustrating part is that it sometimes does save my changes, but most often it does not. I have never had this issue before, so I don't know if it is a bug with the new version, or if there was a change to how the tool works in the latest version and I am just doing something wrong on my end. 

Thank you!

UPDATE: 

I received this response to the Ticket I opened: 

We noticed that any changes made in the Python tool code are reverted when clicking on the canvas after editing, or when deselecting and reselecting the Python tool.
This behavior has already been identified as a defect (TDPY-352 – Autosave in Python tool not working), which was recently logged, as it worked correctly in previous versions.
However, I also observed that the code changes are preserved if you manually save the notebook using File > Save Notebook or by clicking the floppy disk icon.
We will keep this case in an Accepted Defect Status to allow you to receive notification once the Designer patch is made available for download to resolve the issues.

Since this is a known issue and has already been logged as a defect, I will mark this thread as resolved and just wait for the patch to be available. 

Thank you,
