Cannot 'Apply' settings

[BrianGee]

Hi all,

Whenever I make a change in the options menu and press 'Apply', the settings do not save. Normally, once the user hits 'Apply' the button is greyed out and inactive.

This is driving me crazy because every time I open PL/SQL developer I have to do my settings all over again.

Can anyone help please?

Thanks,

Brian

Can you go to Help > Support Info, press the 'Copy all pages' button on this info screen, and paste this text into an e-mail reply?

This seems like a 7.1 bug. You have 2 preference file entries with the same name:

Preference Files
C:\Users\brian.b\AppData\Roaming\PLSQL Developer\Preferences\brian.b\Default.ini
C:\Users\brian.b\AppData\Roaming\PLSQL Developer\Preferences\brian.b\default.ini

Do you perhaps have multiple preference sets defined?

 

[BrianGee]

Nope. When I copy and paste the path ending in default.ini, Windows cannot find this.

Default.ini opens just fine.

Can you go to Tools > Preferences, click on the preference set selection list at the top of the preference form, and let me know which preference set names are displayed?

I have two 'System Default' appearing in the drop down list.

One is green, the other is red.

Somehow your "system" and personal preference files point to the same file.

Can you go to Tools > Preferences and click the "configure preference sets" button (the little one with dots) to open the configuration dialog.

You should have an item listed under Personal Preferences and Default Preferneces. Can you add a new one under Default and delete the one that was there (if any?).

This should clean things up.
