Show Button Captions - Missing in action

Post by aurumdigitus »

Just autodownloaded v18.40.01. Customize : Toolbar : Options does not show Show Button Captions. What is wrong?

I did not want to throw that brand-new feature into a mere maintenance release without docs and translation. Next beta will have it again.

Your position is understandable. The said, however, the Beta Release Notes v18.40.0001 - 2017-09-21 16:14 leads folk to believe it would be there.

For those "impatient Petes" who can't wait, in Configuration File go to: ToolbarCaptions=0 and change to 1.

Note: this always involves an element of risk. If timid wait until it is part of program interface. :!: :!:

Yes, but it's nevertheless a beta version which has a usual average lifetime of 12-24h. I don't see a real problem there.

After both meditation and cerebration you have forced me to agree. Beta means Beta and is not a "Gold Release to Manufacturing" edition.

Perhaps the time has come to quit following "Not Yet Ready For Prime Time" forum. :eh:

:?

Not sure how you come to that conclusion.

The reason for that 0100 release was a couple of bug fixes. No point to add a new major feature that has no GUI translation and no Help entries yet.

From my POV the feature is totally finished. Nothing to do here in the pipeline.
