Last checked in/with RapidWeaver Elements b20 (23031) :

the (Elements program) Settings (wheel on the top right of the main window) only have a Close button, so they “auto-safe” for everything you do?  
I find that particularly hard to work with. For me my Settings should be saved when I want and therefore allow me to work with them and if I do not like what I am doing “Cancel” at any given time.

Yes, that is correct.

Interesting… it’s the same in Classic, but those settings are in the main window, I wonder if it feels different because it’s in a modal window 🤔

Yeah, I get that. It’s just because in RW Classic I did not get to give “feedback”, in Elements … well, it’s just a suggestion, right?  
And, not to be nit picking, but some things in RW Classic do have a “Cancel” (the Publishing Destinations), where they lost that in Elements.  
Just an idea 😉

Haha, yes, understood, we’ll look at bringing/adding some of these things back!
