Query encoding broken after saving

I've been experimenting huge encoding issues since one of the software upgrades around may/june. I have managed to adapt since then, but it's no more bearable.

Here's an example:

Save the follosing in a test.sql file then close it from heidi

SET @test := 5;
SELECT 
    @test+1
;

When reopening it will show up the +1 missing!

SET @test := 5;
SELECT 
    @test
;

If I save it with a space after the + eg: @test+ 1, only the + will disappear:

SET @test := 5;
SELECT 
    @test 1
;

Please advise if there's a fix as it is driving me nuts.

PS: I'm running:

• Win10 x64
• Heidi 10.2.0.5728 x64 (I just updated and did the tests in)

Thanks in advance ;-)

I can reproduce that, but only if I open the file in "UTF-7" encoding:

You should use "UTF-8" instead.

OMG, was it that simple x_x I was opening files as I used to do for months: I only double click with no default options.

Question is: how come UTF-7 is selected by default and how to make UTF-8 default instead ?

OMG, apparently all what it takes is to select it once and it remembers it... If Only I have asked this before, I was so lazy to provide an example :x

Thank you ansgar for the fast support
