Summary0000343: 0.100 : file contents is not consistently saved the same way for the same visual
DescriptionI have this file at work using custom elements.
I created an extract for reproducibility attached here : https://github.com/ThomasPrioul/test-qet-export-diff

Whenever I close/open and save the file, the whole file is mixed up :
- attributes order
- elements order

So it's very hard to track diffs in git, it creates huge commits for nothing.
I can't reproduce the behavior on an empty new file where diffs seems much simpler.
Steps To ReproduceClone the attached git repo, open in 0.100 and save. the file contents change completely, despite having moved nothing on the diagram.
Tagsgit, qet, save, vsc

Btw this is for version 0.100.0 but I could not submit the form if I selected that.

Fixed on 0.200.1 dev with Qt6 framework, why use old 0.100.0 version, you lost a big lot of new great features.

Sadly no, I just checked and the exact same problem still happens with our file.
You don't even need to change anything in the diagram, just open/save/close. and do it again. the file will be different.

I checked with my attached file in the issue.
In 0.200 from 5 hours ago, I opened the file and saved it (no modifications).
If I close/open/save, this file doesn't have the problem of modified content.
BUT, if I move one element in the file, all the <input> section items have changed position in the list.
In vscode diff visualization, it can detect that the items were effectively moved (see attached picture).

I updated the git repo to show this problem.
