           Summary: Loss of hinting instructions on changes/saving.
           Product: Fedora
           Version: 10
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW

    Classification: Fedora


Description of problem:
When I change the glyph point on a certain glyph, fontforge pops up a window of
message like "all the glyphs which refer to this glyph will be changed".

After that, there are some characters on the main window (the one with grid of
glphs) have highlighted in blue color. Such highlights means empty instructions
on such glyphs.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
fontforge-20080828-1.fc10.i386

How reproducible:
Often.

Steps to Reproduce:
- prepare f10
- login to desktop env
- ensure latest fontforge is installed
- start fontforge w/
http://fedorapeople.org/~cchance/packages/liberation-fonts/LiberationMono-BoldItalic.sfd
loaded
- pick a glyph and change some glyph points on it
- check results

Actual results:
Changes only are applied to the glyph edited.

Expected results:
Some blue highlights on main window (with grid of all glpyhs), which means
empty hinting instructions on such glyphs.
