scrollbar freezes

Unread post by William_ »

Hi,

The scroll-bar on the project explorer pane seems to become non responsive on occasion.
Not sure what circumstances causes it or what frees it up again, just a heads up really.

Thanks

Are you running the latest build of H&M Version 5.6 build 1340?

Also, which operating system?

auto backup enablement and period.
The project location, the recent projects, the tick-box for the calculate stats on start screen (the project shown as a short cut was for its old location several months ago and now non-existent - IE completely wrong and odd - where did it find out of date information on projects exactly and why did it not find the current settings in their entirety and utilise them?).

It actually has remembered the rest of the settings (as it seems in order after a cursory look), sorry for overreacting (but frankly it is not the beyond the ken of most competent software houses to ensure settings do not get wiped out).

Hmm, odd. I've been running H&M for over 5 years and never had a problem with any setting being wiped out while upgrading.

Nevertheless is your scrollbar issue fixed or does it still freeze occsionally?

I have not seen it happen again yet (scroll-bar freeze), the freezing I mentioned- I only noticed once before I think.

I would have to say the upgrading felt more like an install over existing installation - though that may just be the wording on the installer.
