WeBuilder 2011 Beta3: Customised colour syntax missing from 2010

Post by MikeyB »

Just installed Beta 3, and when it launched it didn't have my customized colour syntax from 2010, Beta 1 did.

Not only that, but just gone back into 2010, and it too has reverted back to the default syntax colours.

I've done a system restore to yesterday, before the Beta 3 install, and 2010 has now got my colours back, so happy now.

When I got my copy of build3, I simply installed it into another directory rather than copying over.

'lo and behold' the setting were carried over to the new installation. I didn't have to change a thing in the settings.

As did I with both beta 1 & beta 3.
It worked fine when I installed beta 1, but beta 3 just messed all settings up in both 2010 & the beta.

Just noticed that the beta has completely lost all syntax colouring, everyting is just black text. In preferences there are no colours to change:

It's also now crashing a lot, guess due to corrupted settings somewhere, gonna remove & try again.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Just removed the beta using control panel -> Add/Remove programs, and now 2010 has lost ALL it's settings again.
When I launched 2010 it went through the setting questions when you first install it.

Looks like 2010 & 2011 beta must be using the same location for settings, oh dear!

Edit, not quite all settings, my layouts are still there, just seems to be everything in options -> preferences including syntax colours.

Think I'll leave the beta alone for now...
