Re: Deleting an object in a group DELETES THE WHOLE GROUP!

2007-10-03 Thread Mark Swindell
I had the same thing happen to me this morning.  Edit a group, select  
an object within the group, and the whole group disappeared.   
Fortunately cmd-z brought the whole pile back.  The only way I was  
able to delete objects was to enable select grouped items (which is  
also temperamental, doesn't always toggle or act according to what  
the icon indicates), select an item, and delete it.  I didn't check  
the application browser, but this has happened more than once.


OS X 10.4, version 2.9.0 Enterprise Beta with GLX2 enabled..

Len,
Instead of the application browser, try the Rev Navigator. Go to the 
Development menu, select Plugins, then choose revNavigator. I've found it 
indispensable for finding hidden things, and selecting components of groups.

Any ideas what's going on?


If indeed you selected the field rather than the group, chances are the 
group is still there.  If the lockLoc property of the group is false, 
and empty group will resize to fit its contents when its contents 
change.  For an empty group, the means the group rect would be the sum 
of its borders.


So you might try clicking in the area just below the top-left of where 
the group was last seen to see if it's there.


But more interesting to me is that this stack isn't showing in Rev's App 
Browser.  What is the stack named?  If the first three letters of the 
stack's name are "rev" you might need to turn on the preference option 
which allows Rev stacks to be displayed in IDE components.

Deleting an object in a group DELETES THE WHOLE GROUP!

2007-10-03 Thread Len Morgan
This problem just popped up this morning (it had been working fine).  I 
have a set of overlapping groups with buttons on the side (themselves in 
a group) that when clicked, select one of the groups to be visible and 
all others to be invisible.  This has worked just fine for several months.


Today I was trying to remove a field from one of the groups.  I selected 
the group, picked "Edit Group", then selected the control I wanted to 
delete.  As soon as I press delete, then entire group is deleted (and

I've ever tried!).  It appears that all of the other groups that were 
"under" the one I was editing have also been deleted.
