Workspaces have multiple new bugs in TextPad 9

[Mr. Code Monkey]

I use multiple workspaces and the feature was great in TextPad 8.

But now several problems have cropped up in TextPad 9 and TextPad 9.0.1

1. Workspace menu shortcut loads the wrong workspace.
   1. Set-up/use several multifile workspaces.
   2. Start a new TextPad instance.
   3. Try to open the most recent workspace: Press: Alt-f, W, 1
      The workspace will not open, instead a random file or workspace will open!
   4. But, trying to open other workspaces this way will usually open the intended file set. (EG: Alt-f, W, 2)
   5. Not sure if you need more than 10 saved workspaces for this bug to happen.
2. File tab order not preserved.
   1. Save a workspace with tabs ordered File-A, File-B, etc.
   2. Close and restart TextPad.
   3. Open the previous workspace. The tab order will be scrambled.
3. Last focused file/tab not preserved.
   Open a previously saved workspace containing multiple files. Say you were last working in "mainfile". When the workspace reopens some other file will be focused/selected. TextPad may be selecting the file that is *least* used/modified, I'm not sure but it is incorrect always.

Please correct these bugs. They were not present in TextPad 8.

Mr. Code Monkey: thank you so much for doing this post, I was about to do the same one.

I see all the bugs that you report.

They are so bad that TextPad 9.0.1 is unusable.

I not only had to de-install 9.0.1 and revert to the latest 8.15.1, I also had to restore my workspace files from my last backup because 9.0.1 corrupted them.

This is a shame, because I kinda like 9.0.1's dark theme.

kevinHealy, for some reason I didn't get a notice of your reply.

Anyway, it seems that these issues may have been silently fixed in version 9.1.0. I don't see them enough now to get irritated.
