Editor doesn't appear and makes QV10 client hang

Tue, 13 May 2014 15:34:40 GMT

Hi, Has anyone had the problem that when the LOAD script editor is called it doesn't appear and makes the QV10 client hang? The desktop client can start, reload QVW files, open macro editor but when the load script editor is called it doesn't appear. It's not related to an issue where the editor window is outside the screen since I can't return to the normal window by pressing the esc button. The problem startede after a hard reboot of the windows server and a reinstall of the client havn't fixed the problem. It's a QV10SR2 running on a Windows Server 2003.

It means that the "editor" opens outside of the visible area.

Unzip the attached, and run it, it should fix the problem.

Hi,

You can also try ALT+Shift+m and they use the arrow key to move it.

It is ALT+Space+m.

And you have to guess where to move

Hi Michael,

Normally, the left arrow will bring it back into view. Not sure what your application does, but most people don't have the rights to edit their registry.

Bill, thanks for the "left arrow" hint.

"My" application is actually from QlikTech, about ten years ago. Yes, it's not going to help for the restricted users...

Bill,

I just tested this utility - it works for QV 8.50, but not for QV 10.

Heine,

Your only choice is to use ALT+Space+m, and moving hidden window by using arrows until it is visible.

Hi Michael,

I think the reason in version 10 removed away from the registry for values. After I posted about users not having access to change their registry, it dawned on me about the settings.ini file.

Makes sense, thanks Bill.
