SC sync "preview"

[Daniel0312]

Hi
SC sync doesn't keep preview dialog on screen, either when switch is set to "p" or when pressing "Preview" in sync dialog when switch is set to "c".
Also, the "cp" switch doesn't pre-focus the Preview button.
Sync Folders is working fine from the Panes menu though.

You're right about the pre-focus. Surprisingly this NEVER worked. It was never implemented. Fix comes.

To keep the progress open pass "k" additionally: cpk

Thanks for the "k" part that was right there in the help file
And the pre-focus is great in v24.10.0005 - 2023-02-21 12:26

Now the preview window stays on screen, but I have another issue
On my fully configured XY version the Reports button doesn't show the menu, nothing happens.
It works well in a fresh instance though so there must be something wrong in my settings.
Any idea what the problem could be (I can't imagine setting everything back from scratch).

[Daniel0312]

I've been looking around XY settings, but I can't find any option that would explain this behavior.
Any hint wouild be welcome.

[admin]

Can't explain that either.

I did some more testing... Source folder
When called from the Panes menu, Sync Folders works as expected : pressing the Reports button on the Preview dialog shows option for report.
I believe the following code should give the same result (?)

Code: Select all

 sync "R:\TEMP\Source", "E:\TOOLS\TEMP\Dest", 1, 1, 0, "cpk";

It doesn't, nothing happens when I click the Reports button

[admin]

No problems here.

[Daniel0312]

great

Some more testing... and I think I got it !

Using SC sync, the Reports button on the Preview dialog only works when the script is launched from the main Menu bar or the address bar.
It doesn't work when using Toolbar Menu.

You solved some similar problem before viewtopic.php?p=196860#p196860

I hope you can do something about it.

[admin]

Yeah, you surely got it!

Can you show me the toolbar bar button definition, so I can reproduce it?

[Daniel0312]

I use the standard Toolbar with the menu buttons

An other test :
I select a test script file containing the sync line.

Code: Select all

sync "R:\TEMP\Source", "E:\TOOLS\TEMP\Dest", 1, 1, 0, "pk";

XY menu bar / Help / List All Commands + dbl click #751 » the Reports button works fine
Toolar Menu / Help / List All Commands + dbl click #751 » the Reports button doesn't work

[admin]

Thanks, got it. Guess I'm gonna fix it...

[Daniel0312]

fixed in 24.10.0009
