Re: RDi 9.0.1 Save grayed out--> Repaint issue & missing

I had a similar issue when I had the iSphere and RPG Tool Box plugins
installed at the same time. I uninstalled the iSphere and the RPG Tool
Box plugin started working and my right-click menu also started acting
proper.

Linoma has released an update to their RPG Tool Box plugin that now
plays wells with the iSphere (as far as I know with the limited time I
have been using the new release of the RPG Tool Box).



Sorry I do not have the versions of RPG Tool Box from before the update
but the most recent version is 1.0.5 and iSPhere is 1.4.0.


Thanks, Matt

Hi,

I am using RDi 9.0.1

And seem to have frequent "Re-Painting" issues, especially on the
Right-Click and submenu options.

I normally have 2-7 members tabs open at once, because I multitask...
<grin>

Once in a while, I do NOT have the "COMPILE" menu up...

Sadly, I have to switch tabs, and force a "RE-PAINT", which then makes
the "COMPILER" menu option show up again.

And often doing the "shortcut menu" (Shift+F10, mouse right-click), it
does not allow me select options like the follows:
>Selected>Filtered Selection
>Selected>Find Selection
>Source>Show Date Area
Basically, any right-click sub-menu does not work until the
"Two-Stroke"... <frown>

Basically, very often, any "right-click" operation, I have to do the
"Two-Stroke"... <Big Frown> I hit Esc, and re-do then Right-Click, and
then it works....

Even when I do shortcut key for the context menu, I still VERY OFTEN
have to do the Two-Stroke... <Frown>

I recently created a brand new workspace, approximately 2-weeks ago...

I grow tired of explaining to NEWBIES, that this IBM Software often
requires the "Two Strokes". <bummer>

On some newbie's screens, it also fails to paint the screen, sort of
like this:

key=Gv1sRgCIDmgZarxaOYNg#5893765060504791506

I happen to NO LONGER have the painting-issue (Showing empty space) of
the "right-click", but my "SUB-Menus" do NOT show up.
Hence it requires the "Two Stroke" to get my sub-menu options...

If others are also having this happen, I guess I should open PMR....

I don't know if an APAR is already out there on this issue or not...

Does anyone else have this issue? Where on the FIRST pop-Up of the
right-click, the "sub-menu" options DO NOT SHOW up?

Thanks!

PS. It usually only happens when I have had RDI 9.0.1 open for a while
and have been doing a lot of code editing/Compiling/Debug/Etc...
