v4.0 bugs and problems

Hi people,

I've just found some problems in AE (Xsi v4.0):

1 - AE's Preferences get lost very often
Repro steps:
- Open a scene with some animation clips in the mixer.
- Select a clip.
- Hit 0 to load AE for the selected clip and open AE > View > Preferences.
- Change preferences, uncheck "slopes on unselected curves" inside View Tab for
example.
- Press Ctrl + T in the mixer, that will display a PPG with Clip's time control
. (Don't close AE and TimeControl PPG)
- Select another Clip in the mixer and ... voilĂ , the changes in preferences
get reset as their default values.

2 - in v4.0 AE has "edit > snap to grid" option enabled by default... I know
this can't be defined as a bug but it's very annoying.

I hope that someone from support is reading.... and these are only some SMALL
v4.0 bugs.

The buglist is endless... RBD actual shape not working AT ALL, capture codecs
crashing, mixer saves corrupted scene files in certain situations (you will
never be able to open such scenes again), corrupted mixer audiotracks in scenes
loading from v3.5 and many others, everything using certified v4.0 specific
drivers.

Anyone from Soft could please tell us if a bugfix release is planned? We're
switching back 10 people to v3.5 in production. Weird.

Regards,
Michele
