Is this by design ? I'm asking because in Delphi 'Close all' really closes "all".

Hello,

yes this difference is by design. To close the project in Lazarus IDE you have to execute Project -> "Close Project" from the menu. File -> "Close all" closes all open editors.

OK, thank you.

Any particular reason for this behaviour ? It seems a bit strange to me to treat the project differently.

This feature is not from me. I was hit by it as well when I started using Lazarus. AFAIR it's been always so. I got used to it and I find it logical.

I set up Lazarus to remember open editors (to reopen them when a project is opened) and so after some time the count of open editors grows a lot. This is a way to close all editors easily and have a clean source editor. On the contrary, If I want to close the project and keep the open editors remembered, I use the "Close Project" menu item.

So for me Delphi should fix their behavior to match Lazarus :)

Ondrej
