2016.20 intermittently becomes inactive
« on: April 22, 2016, 12:06:17 PM »
So occasionally while I'm sequencing most of the controls in xlights will become inactive. I will be working on the sequence go to play and while it's playing I can't get the stop pause or any other controls to work. Even if I let it play to the end of the song things still won't work I end up having to close down xlights and reopen it. I have yet to figure out what triggers this Behavior at the moment it seems totally random. At least when I close down it'll allow me to save what I'm doing

Are they greyed out or just don't respond?  If they just don't respond then that's the toolbar button bug we've talked about several times.  Click on another application and then back to xLights to fix the focus.  You get into that state by clicking a red X close button on a floating panel usually.

Good to know they just don't respond. I'm still fairly new to this forum so I'm not up on everything that you guys have discussed in the past
