Dropdown keeps closing

Postby ericvic » 06.02.2014 21:51:06

I am running version 1.6.11, Build 2394 and I am seeing a strange problem. I have only seen this in Alibre Design so far but when I click on a dropdown it will show the contents of the dropdown for about 1 second and the the dropdown closes. If I shut down Dexpot then the problem goes away.

Anybody have any ideas?

Thanks,
Eric

Do you have any "Desktop Rules"?

Please enable the Dexpot log file, reproduce the problem and then send me the log.

Just to make sure: did you actually open any dropdowns in Alibre Design while the log file was enabled?

Yes, I opened them 3 times.

I tried it again and opened 2 different dropdowns, see if this log is any better.

No, there's nothing relevant in the log. Sorry, no idea what's going on. Is there a demo version of the program available somewhere, so I can try it myself?

I don't think so plus my version is a few version old because I dropped my maintenance.

One last (wild) guess. Go to "Settings > Plugins and Extras > Debugging > Advanced", enable the option "Keep Foreground Lock Timeout" and restart Dexpot.
