RC 488 - displaying options (old error again)

[ikarus1969]

Please apologize for coming up with an old bug again

In a topic for RC 406 i wrote about displaying the options for Yoindow itself and the options for a landscape.

• If you start YoWindow, press Ctrl-O, close the YoWindow-Options-window, press Ctrl-Alt-O for landscapes-options then the options for YoWindow are displayed instead.
• If you start YoWindow, press Ctrl-Alt-O, close the landscape-Options-window, press Ctrl-O for YoWindow-options then the options for the landscape are displayed instead.

You have to quit and restart YoWindow to get the "other" options-window.

Win XP SP3.

Hey, Reinhart!

I was not able to repeat neither the first not the second case on 488.
It may have a connection with a specific landscape.
Are you able to repeat the error easily?

I don't think the problem has popped up due to changes in the recent builds.
I think it was always been there.
And as far as I remember it is very hard to solve.

The error is a result of unexpected behavior of Action Script 2.0 library code.

YoWindow 3.0 is being programmed in Action Script 3.0, so the problem will go away.

I don't think it is major and I consider left it unsolved until 3.0.
I'm afraid it will take a lot of time to fix.

Thank you for taking care.
I wish I could solve all the problems

Yes, i can repeat it easily - but this bug only appears with custom landscapes (with the default landscapes there's no bug with displaying the options).

YoWindow 3.0 is being programmed in Action Script 3.0, so the problem will go away.

That's of course ok - it doesn't happen really often that i display the landscape-options-dialog

I wish I could solve all the problems

Me, and i think we all, wish that too

Thanks! At least now I know how to repeat it.
