Issues noted with 5.2.0

Post by cperilli »

Just curious if other people are seeing these issues:

1. Macro menu says "Stop Recording" all the time although selecting "Stop Recording" will start recording if recording is not already active. Minor annoyance.

2. If I set up a macro to find a line, copy it and then paste to a different file it will only do the first line it finds, even if I specify "Repeat to end of file". However, I have no problem doing this with the old 3.2.5 version. Do macros work differently on 5.2.0? I have kept 3.2.5 on my PC because I frequently need to copy and paste selected lines from one file to another.

Thanks.

This problem will be fixed in the next maintenance upgrade, but in the mean time please try renaming the file config.xml, which you will find at the following location, and then try starting up TextPad. Exit from TextPad before renaming the file.

C:\Documents and Settings\User name\Application Data\Helios\TextPad\5.0

I hope this helps.
