Admin.ini Does Not Play Well with Fresh Installs.

[SkyFrontier]

Message: 'Visible' property can't be set on this control.
Admin setting:
profile=504
Xy simply shuts after displaying the error message.
Tested on latest beta - 9.60.0109.
Wondering if it's a "registered users"-only feature or a bug...

[admin]

Oh yes, bug. Thanks + fixed.

Another little glitch (for the records, if anyone stumbles upon this):
the previous value (profile=504) leads to XY not showing icons for UDC scripts (verified in v9.60.0109). This was solved in the next version with this change (that solves the OT proposition, by the way):

Code: Select all

v9.60.0110 - 2010-10-27 11:37
    ! Admin Settings: A profile with eAPHide_User_ManageUDC (8) but no
      UDCs defined in udc.dat lead to a startup error. Fixed. From now
      on the "Manage Commands..." item is not hidden but disabled.

@Don: is this a transitory solution? I mean: I'd really not want the "Manage Commands..." being displayed at all...
Thank you.

It might be improved in future but low prio.

[SkyFrontier]

Ok, thanks.
Perhaps it comes in time when my setup aiming usage for this is done...

Somewhat related, but this time goes for actual, working installs, too: recent v9.80.0007 feature on "admin settings" (remote lic) refuses to work properly, popping a standard "xyplorer.exe found a problem and must be closed". I've tried everything: adding spaces between [Settings] / [Register] (in respective files, of course) and required values, putting lic details inside "<..>", renaming both file and file entry on admin.ini from custom to "Lic.ini", renaming "admin" to "Admin", adding a "profile" entry into "admin".
Please advise.

Please read the instructions carefully again. If still problems, please send your Admin.ini and Lic.ini to me.

Yes, the was a slightly false analysis. Next version should fix it. Thanks!

Almost there...
Now it works with C:\xyplorer_9_80_0008_beta_noinstall\Data\_RES\Temp\lic.ini but not with <xydata>\_RES\Temp\lic.ini...
Suggestion (I know, you've seen that before): Lic could be named as something a little bit less attractive, like Par (evoking "parameter"), or even better: user defined inside xyplorer.ini (same goes to the "profile" entry and any other future sections inside Admin.ini.
Thanks!
