1 - if you have ctouch running and start the toolkit then close the tookkit with the kill cgate option set, toolkit kills cgate without checking that ctouch is active,this then kills ctouch. Toolkit should check if another app active first.

2- the window size in the lower scene setting screen should be resizable - not the postage stamp size at the moment so you can a full line and lots of lines.

3- unused tags. If a tag is set for power recovery in ctouch it is added to the
PR file so when ctouch starts if it not in the xml file it is readded. In ctouch only the tags that are used show up in the "load monitor" so if you change a button that was using that tag to a different tag (not used anywhere else) you now can not turn off the power recovery option. This now results in the unused tags readded to the xml file every time ctouch is restart.

The current method of starting/stoppping and managing C-Gate is a stop gap to a more robust and complete solution. It's main flaw being the one you mention.

This will be changed significantly soon, and also implement one of the most requested features for C-Gate. ;-)

I will get those issues fixed before the release. Thanks Dave.

*thinks back*
In a very early release was there not an NT version that would run as a service? I seem to recall one. ;)
cheers

I can't make this happen. Is there anything particular that makes it happen ? For example, does a new project work OK, but it fails once you add something to the project ?

If you can't see any particular pattern, could you export your project to an archive and e-mail it to CIS Tech Support (see ttp://www.clipsal.com/cis/forms/techsupport.php3) for them to pass on to me, and I will see if the problem can be identified and fixed.

Yes there was, but it wasn't cross platform and it used non styandard java stuff. Hence it was junked to standardise C-Gate and make it properly cross-platform. The upcoming change won't affect C-Gates cross platform status.

Files emailed to CIS
Also have found that on a new project the error only comes after turning on power fail recovery on tags.
Delete the csv file and all ok again

Thanks. All problems listed except for the C-Gate one have now been fixed.
