Dear Mary, Thursday, July 27, 2006 you let us know -possibly edited- :
> I have just encountered a series of AV messages that TB! cannot draw > an image after using the "Insert Smile" dialogue window Thank you for being such an adventurous beta-testing friend. Have you had the opportunity to have a look at the except.log file? In my case, there were dozens of lines of text that all said the same. The beginning of the error log contains some words about -wait, I found it: > GifImage:8 EInvalidOperation Canvas does not allow drawing This was the start of a cascade of more errors. When I tried out some smilies that I would send to me, I found that there were some doubles (the kissy ones in the first line) and that some of them didn't seem to have a correct handle i.e. :handle: Some missed the final >:< at the end. And when I received those, they wouldn't show up correctly. > The AV windows cascaded. I had to close TB! with the Task Manager. My Bat certainly has been much more experienced in crashing than yours, every now and then I have some troubles with that. If I restore it from tray, sometimes TB can't be motivated to go back at work: The freshly maximized window, although set as active, doesn't react on any of my clicks then. TB can't be terminated the regular way then and must be aborted by task manager. This time, however, when fiddling around with the "insert smiles" functionality, my TB had a heavy hick-up for some seconds before it finally crashed and closed itself without me having it stopped. I saw IIRC some alert boxes, too, but all happened much too quick. >> BTW: moving the scroll bar in the opening smileys box does not have any >> visible effect on the icons there: they stay and won't scroll as long as >> the mouse holds and moves the bar. > Confirmed. I agree with you that this feature should be reworked in-depth. -- kind regards Charlene Ferrara mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Using The Bat! v3.81.12 Beta on Windows XP 5.1 Build 2600 Service Pack 2 Skype: charleneferrara ________________________________________________________ Current beta is 3.81.12 | 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html IMPORTANT: To register as a Beta tester, use this link first - http://www.ritlabs.com/en/partners/testers/
