Disappearing Windows Bug?

[dougc@bcaa]

Hi,
I just upgraded to version 7.0.0.1050 and I'm finding a strange thing happenning. When I use the new navigation buttons to move between open session windows, my windows (with changes pending) sometime just disappear. It looks like I end up getting multiple copies of other windows in their place.

This is disconcerting when I lose pending changes to packages as a result.

Has anyone else encountered this?

We have one similar problem report like this. Do you perhaps have the Window List open? If so, can you float/dock it, or hide it, and verify if this affects the problem?

Let me know how this turns out.

Hi,
I'm not sure what you mean by "Window List".

I'm just using the right and left arrows to scroll through my open windows. The earlier version of the tool had a list displayed below the Objects list on the left, but this one does not seem to. If that is the list you are referring to, I'd like to know how to turn this on.

Regards.

In the Tools menu there is a Window List item. This will show/hide the list, and may be related to the problem. Let me know how this affects things.

Ok, I have this set up now.

I'll let you know if the problem persists.

Hi,
It seems as though the windows which were no longer available using the new Arrow keys, and available in the window list.

Thanks.

I'm not quite sure what you mean. Can you elaborate?

What I meant to say was that when I use the new () arrow keys to navigate through the windows, some of the windows tend to disappear. The suggestion was made to enable the window list and see if the missing windows are there. They are.
