FMX Frame always marked as modified when opened (RAD Studio 12.3)

[dmitrybv 5]

Hi,

Embarcadero® RAD Studio 12 Version 29.0.55362.2017 
I noticed a strange behavior in RAD Studio 12.3 (FireMonkey Application):
Whenever I open my custom FMX Frame in the IDE designer, it is immediately marked as modified.
The IDE then asks me to save changes when I close the frame, even though:

• the frame is completely empty (no components, no property changes),

• no changes were made manually,

• saving does not actually alter the .fmx or .pas files (their timestamps remain the same).

The issue only happens with Frames. With regular Forms, this does not occur.

 

I cannot understand whether this is an intended feature of the IDE (some hidden metadata handling) or a bug. Has anyone else noticed the same behavior?

It's not intended.

This issue is easily reproducible, was reported back in 2023 and has a high priority (Priority: Major), although it is still not resolved.
This is strange.
