LogixNG Editing: Losing Ability to Select a Panel After Switching to Panel Editor #controlpaneleditor #logixng


 

Java 17
JMRI 5.10
Windows 11
?
On PanelPro, I have 4 panels:? All, Left, Center, Right.? I've spent lots of time getting everything to work fine.? I'm seeing some odd behavior while trying to modify a LogixNG item, in one specific case.
?
Problem statement:
I start PanelPro and load the profile.? Everything works as expected.
I edit one of my LogixNG entries that sets the hide/show for an icon.? This is what I see.? Note that all 4 panel names are shown in the dropdown.
?
?
I Cancel out and make no changes to this entry.
?
I edit the Right panel using Control Panel Editor.? I then switch to Panel Editor.? I've changed nothing at this point.? Now, when I? edit that same LogixNG entry, this is what I see.? Note that only 3 panel names are shown in the dropdown and the panel that the icon is on (Right) is not an option.?
?
If I switch back to Control Panel Editor, the problem persists:? the "Right" panel does not appear in the pulldown.??
?
As a test, at this point I saved my configuration to a new filename.? I then exited PanelPro and restarted and loaded the newly saved file.? At that point, I could again see that the LogixNG tables were able to be edited as expected (as long as I didn't try using Panel Editor again).? So, it appears that no permanent damage occurs when I switched to Panel Editor on my initial try.? Still, it's disconcerting to see the LogixNG editing environment get screwed up this way.
?
What is going on and how do I proceed, other than using the workaround I describe above?
?


 

Bob,

You have discovered an obscure bug that has nothing to do with LogixNG.

When switching between CPE and PE views, the panel is removed from the list of panels but it is not added as a new CPE or PE panel.

For now, you need to be aware of the issue and use your workaround.

This should be fixed with the 5.11.4 test release.
