I noticed both of these issues last week while doing a training course at the Thai synchrotron. Both should be resolved in the upcoming release.
A couple of times "Feff" module in Artemis stopped responding and I had to force close the program. Now whenever I click on .fpj files I see a window which asks me to restore from previous autosave files. I click "Cancel" this dialogue box disappears but selected .fpj file is not automatically loaded. Next time when I try to open another .fpj file, I get the same window and behavior again. Is there any way to delete these autosave file? I have searched in mail archieve but there is no querry regarding it for this "Demeter" version.
It does indeed seem that I don't delete autosave files when you choose not to import them. I will fix that. Of course, the issue with autosave files seems less important to me than your "Artemis stopped responding" problem. It is certainly possible that the pathfind can take a long, long time if you choose to compute paths from a very large cluster. But I am not aware of a problem that casues Artemis to simple freeze. If you could show me an example that I can reproduce on one of my own computers, that would be helpful.
Since I have a bunch of Artemis fits on my PC, to save time I select "File" and then "Close" to close the current fit and then open another Artemis fit instead of "File" and "Exit". In this way when I open another Artemis fit (.fpj) file, I see a couple of "Feff Calculations" in the main Artemis tool bar. How ever I usually don't see these many "Feff Calculations" if I completely close the Artemis and then reopen the same file. Is there any way to solve this behavior? Screen shots of both the problems are attached.
Artemis was not taking sufficient care to remove all Feff calculations from its work space on disk when closing a project. Until the next release comes with a fix for this problem, the best work around is to stop and restart Artemis.
