}

The data.classes file appears to have been changed to contain some methods.   
These classes (NSWindow, NSView) should not be here.  This is part of what is 
causing the issue.

This is either an issue with these being added by hand or an issue with a bad 
conversion from the very old .gorm format (when .gorms where files and not dir 
packages).   I must stress that NO changes should ever be made by hand to any 
of the files in the .gorm file package.  If you do make these changes it's your 
responsibility to make certain what you're doing is correct and wont cause an 
issue when editing the file with Gorm.

Summary:  Controls constantly dissapear from Panels

Original Submission:  Controls are constantly dissapearing when I add new ones 
and form connections (see attached file).  I've gone through several iterations 
of putting new controls back onto the panel and watching them dissapear.  Note 
that connections still appear to be valid, only the controls themselves 
dissapear.

I've made multiple attempts to recreate this with the latest CVS of both 
GNUstep (base/gui/back) and Gorm without success.

I have taken the attached .gorm file and added a number of controls to it along 
with many connections as GSPrintPanel2.gorm.   I tried various things such as 
saving and reloading the .gorm a couple of times and saving shutting down and 
then reloading.

At no time did gorm crash, or cause the controls to disappear from the window.  
Please provide more detail about this problem as, if it is occurring I would 
like to fix it ASAP.

Thanks, GJC

I disagree with the use of "constantly" in this bug's summary as this has to do 
never happened to me.   Also, there is insufficient detail for me to even guess 
as to the cause since the submitter doesn't provide a description of what they 
were doing.

I will test as many scenarios as I can to try to recreate this issue.  I have 
downloaded the attached .gorm file and I am able to modify it with no issues 
whatsoever.
