Hi

I just did a new install of lSwitcher 2.93 RC 3 (TaskBar) on a fresh
install of 5.0.6.0 and it works fine. The popup hints render as expected
as do the settings notebook pages. Is your test system a fresh install
or an update? If its an update is the COMSPEC line in your config.sys REMMED?

Please run a testlog generic on the system and send it directly to me.
Does your AN install/update log report any errors? Is this an English install
or a Spanish install?

Please send a screen shot of the problem. You may need to make the popup
sticky to do this. Thanks

Hello Gregg,

I am grateful for all the work you do on lSwitcher. However, further
testing v2.93 I am under the impression that the font stuff you are
doing on it, to paraphrase Doug, is breaking something, somewhere,
somehow, and this may take a long time to fix, so I decided to check
2.92 again, which looked much more solid with none of the 2.93 issues.

Unfortunately the whole point of 2.93 is to get the unicode, font and
codepage stuff working.

Remember how the PM popup hints didn't render properly on AOS 5.0.6.03
(which was by far the single biggest problem), and that I reported they
displayed just fine on older systems? Well, I got it to work -- it's
apparently an installer / file layout issue, or at least that is what
the hints needed to break.

Have you tried this same process with the 2.93 RCs? Also using warpin
try uninstalling lSwitcher make sure you delete the ini file and
anything else that happens to still be in its directory then reinstall
it. Before you run it reboot to make sure the newly installed hook is
the one that is loaded.

I have several AOS 5.0.6.03 systems now that show the same behavior
I deem of interest. On each, I have TWO standalone lSwitchers: one
installed via WarpIN (Hook +Common +TaskBar, default destinations), and
the other unpacked manually, with the same files on a single directory.

This sounds like either a hook issue related to LIBPATH or an old ini
file still in the install directory. It uses 4.System VIO for the hints.
2.92 used 6.System VIO. Is it possible that there is a problem with
the font install in 5.0.6.03? Both sizes exist according to the font
palette.

It also uses 9.Warp Sans, 8.Times New Roman MT 30 and 8.Helv.

Every time I run the installed lSwitcher, the hints are unreadable, as
they were before. If I close the installed lSwitcher, however, and I
run the unpacked one instead, hints are perfectly fine and dandy. I can
close and switch back and forth between the two lSwitchers until I get
tired, with the same results every single time.

I hope this gives you some ideas, and helps you to get everything back
on track as soon as possible.

Of course, if you prefer that I stick to testing 2.93rc3, I will -- I
have a few more issues to report on that front.

Yes stick to testing 2.93 as I have no plans to go back to 2.92 and
start over. Thanks

Gregg
