Dictionary Objects Not Saving

[Kyudos]

I have some settings objects in a named object dictionary.

The first time I save my dictionary into the document the contained objects are saved. Subsequent saves of the document do not save the contained objects. (or the dictionary?)

Any idea why this might be? I expect my objects to be saved on every save.

Do you have ISAVEPERCENT set to 0? If not, then saves will be partial saves and objects that haven't changed won't be saved again.

That looks to be it - but that essentially means that edits to my dictionary objects are not registering as changes.

What is the best way to mark an object as dirty? assertWrite()?

Normally, set methods in an object call assertWriteEnabled(). That will set the flag that the object has been modified.
