<![CDATA[unsaved change star symbol]]>

<![CDATA[unsaved change star symbol]]>Some of my opened files are prefixed with a star “*”. As far as I understood it should indicate an unsaved change.
But there’s no unsaved change. Both the “Save” button and the “Save” menu item are greyed out.
Additionally I found out, that depending on the position of the file window the star appears or disappears. This also happens to the non active file windows.
