Layout manager bug?

Recommended Posts

When going into the layout manager after upgrading to version 7, I decided a couple of my layouts were not being used, and I wished to delete them. Doing so causes the project to "fail" (I tried to attach a screen shot, but it isn't sticking).

 

I am using version 7 on a Windows Vista Home Premium machine-however, I was able to replicate this on my laptop which has XP installed.

 

Here are the steps I took:

 

Open layout manager

Choose a layout to delete

Delete a layout

Click close to shut the layout manager window

When prompted to save current layout-answer "no"

The project then "disappears"-toolbar intact, project showing open, but all windows are gone

Have to close project and reopen to be able to work again

 

Is this a known bug?

Hi Siobhan,

 

I am using XP and just created a new layout. I exited TMG and re-opened. The layout Iwas in was the newly created one.

 

I then followed your steps to delete it:

 

Open layout manager

Modify an existing layout (chose my new one)

Delete

Delete the XXX layout?

Yes

Close

Would you like to save the current layout?

No

Project refreshed and re-opened instantaneously using the layout I had last opened prior to the new one.

I just had the exact same thing happen.

but once there were no windows available,

I went to "View"...

"Layouts" and chose a layout from my list....

then all the windows opened fine using the chosen layout.

So I did not have to close V7 and then reopen
