Hi Everyone, I have recently installed Draftsight 2025 professional. I have noticed in this version when you select an element a small properties box (for lack of a better name) pops up.

As I mentioned, I have two main problems, and although I previously created tickets, I could not find where to respond to the replies I received. From my personal

Hello Team, DraftSight 2025 SP4 triggers a crash report immediately upon closing the application.

Good day all. Has anyone come across the following issue? Whenever the save documents as type is set to R12 Binary Drawing (*.dxf) and the application is closed thereafter, the save documents as type changes to R12 ASCII Drawing (*.dxf). All other file types do not change. Is there a reason why this happens? Changing the settings all the time is a pain and causes broken references as well.
