Capture / Allegro V17.4 Issues

Kenneth Wood
Kenneth Wood over 4 years ago

Hi all, I would like to get a thread going for people using V17.4 in order to discuss issues with the software.

I'm seeing quite a few bugs / issues with V17.4 Capture and Allegro. I've submitted multiple CCR's, some minor issues have been addressed but other ones have not.

For ex. How many of you are seeing a blinking in Capture when double clicking text or labels? How many of you use dual monitors and have a mouse wheel pan issue in Allegro when Allegro is on monitor 2?

I have videos of my issues and will make more soon.

Please reply with software issues you are seeing, not enhancements but real issues that weren't there in V17.2

Regards

Ken

    Hi  - This looks like a mouse setting option, go to Control Panel - Mouse - Pointer Options tab and look at Snap to group and uncheck Automatically Move Pointer..... and then restart Allegro and see if that helps. For the errors you see I can't read them so can you put up a screenshot / give more detail but these may well be issues with allegro.ilinit / skill files that have issues.

    Steve, Thank you for the reply but my mouse pointer already has that option disabled. I do not see this issue on V17.2 which I still have installed. This only happens on Allegro V17.4 and no other program I own.
