Posted on behalf of Steve Hamilton, Thales - AQUILA programme.

As a Systems Engineer / Architect

I want the modified star (*) indicating that a model has been edited and requires saving, to be in a more prominent position than hidden at the end of the tab row (suggestions include at the start or the end if not hidden by clipping - i.e. before the X but after the ellipsis.

So That during intense debugging sessions whereby lots of models/windows have to be open in the tab row at the top some with changes made, some without; the modified star is obvious and doesn't mean that we miss certain models having been edited by accident.

Benefits Time efficiencies in intense solution debugging sessions.

Acceptance Criteria 

1. The Modified Star (*) is always visible on the tab row when edited regardless of how many models are open simultaneously.

  As the inventor of the tab ellipsis in MooD 16, I can only support this one. Having lost the asterisks at the end was never the intention of the ellipsis. Even another tab colour for modified tabs would be wonderful. 

  Good story Steve/Jon, wholeheartedly agree.

  Thanks for the support Soren, Steve, Joe and Chris at Thales will be pleased to hear.

  Tab colours for the modified tabs (and generally potentially) sounds like a cool idea too!

  Hi, this has been implemented by Simon H for Build 82 as well as a "Close All But Modified" option.

  (Notice the blue blobs indicating modified)
