GUI stopped working, any thoughts?

by Steven Meek · in Torque Game Builder · 12/07/2007 (11:28 am) · 2 replies

Every time all of a sudden whenever I go to add something to the gui it just completely crashes Torque Game Builder.....

Out of no where it just stopped working now I cannot manipulate my gui in the editor, but if I add code to add something it works perfectly. Please help

I will sometimes get in a crashing phase where I am unable to edit/add GUI elements. I will try shutting down TGB and restarting. If that doesn't work, I will then need to revert to hand editing the .GUI file. Doing this usually resolves my problem and I am able to continue using the GUI editor. Sometimes it may involve removing all of the items in the .GUI file and slowly revealing each GUI control one at a time. Again, I do this all through hand editing the file.

Or...sometimes I may just start the whole file from scratch.

I figured out this only happens when I code a modeless dialog profile for windows and apply it to my root GUI element. Then when I go to add new elements to this it crashes... BUT if i switch the profile back to the default it works just fine....

Also copy/paste of elements works just fine when its set to modeless just not creation
