Discrepancy

[Thomas An]

Hi all,

If you unzip the attachment and ...

1. Open the "TestMe.fp7" file (FM9 pro).

2. Click on the first red field

3. Click on the second red field

The result is not the same. Actually I get nothing with step (2).

Is this a bug you think ?

Thanks,

Thomas

If you include a Show in New Window to related file on your script-step then it will work. A regular GTRR Specify Button doesn't need one, it appears.

I understand that we need a new window when going to another file (Comment explained it awhile back). But I'm surprised that a Specify Button doesn't require it as well.

Actually, there are three problems here:

1. Identical settings behave differently in the regular GTRR versus scripted GTRR (when no new window is specified)

2. The behavior of the current GTRR is suspect itself (as you noted); because it does not force the user to select the "Show in New Window" option and yet it does use a new window.

3. The current behavior of the regular GTRR is what I am after, but cannot be achieved by the scripted version ... because:

Notice with the regular GTRR if you click the second red box multiple times, then you always get the same window. (this is very good. Exactly what I need)

Now if you specify the option to "Show in New Window" then any repeated button-presses will spawn a multitude of identical windows crowding the screen; (this is not good in my case, it is an undesirable effect).

Doesn't have to be a new window, but you need to at least select the other file's window explicitly, when doing this in a script:

aaah ! "Select Window" ... <-- yes that was it (and it doesn't spawn multiple copies).

Thanks for the quick responses "Comment" and LaRetta -) Much appreciated !
