[WeBuilder 2014] Network Drive & Saving Settings Bug

Post by BigManda »

I've been working under windows 8 x64 and noticed two bugs:

1. If you connected a network drive (persistent or none persistent doesn't matter) and you wan't to work on this drive with WeBuilder (2014), you have to connect it each time in WeBuilder again, even if all other software and the microsoft explorer recognice this drive. I'm trying to translate it correctly from german to english.. :P
You have to right-click on computer in the file-explorer of WeBuilder, then click on connect network drive(?), now you can chose the drive/drive letter and you can see your active network drive becouse the connected path is written behind the letter. After you choose the drive, you have to choose the folder and can finish it. Now WeBuilder recognice this network drive correctly, even if you restart the software. But after a computer restart you have to do this again. It sucks if you got your project on the Network drive, which is indispensable in my case.. and you have to do this after each restart of the computer.. and can not use the feature to open the last files of the project.

2. If you change your settings the first time and save them.. there are no problems. But if you wan't to change them after that again.. they don't remain after a restart of WeBuilder. For now i've got a little workaround.. you have to change the settings.. save them.. export the configuration/settings in a file and import them after that. Now the settings will remain. But it sucks if you have to do this each time if you change one little thing :P

Are you absolutely sure about 2nd issue (the one with saving settings)? As far as I know, WeBuilder only saves settings on exit, not right when they are changed. Could you test it again please?

I've test it... and now I'm confused :P

It seems to work right... maybe it happens only with special settings... if I notice something in the future I'll write it down.
Well... than is just the first bug with the network drive left :)
