Vista - Can't Enter Data in Site Mgr

Post by 4winners »

I'm running Vista and just downloaded Core Lite but can't get it to work. When I try to populate the Site Name, Host, User, PW fields in Site Mgr the cursor just moves to the right and nothing gets entered in the field. The cursor seems to float above the copy boxes. Weird. However I can type in the comments box no problem. Is this Vista at work or a glitch in Core?

Any ideas appreciated

Thanks

I have similar but not identical behaviour on my Vista64 laptop. The same CoreFTP Lite installation was running fine on the laptop, and also from other machines (shared program folder, including config file). But recently, on the laptop, it changed to displaying blank entries in the Site Manager -- even though the SM continues to display. No idea what changed, or why. Upgrading to the latest version didn't alter the behaviour.

So now I run it without Site Manager as a workaround, selecting sites from the dropdown button in the right hand panel. But with that approach, I sometimes find that the dropdown button is *missing* when CoreFTP starts on the laptop. It invariably comes back if I exit, run CoreFTP from another machine, exit that, then restart on the laptop.

Bizarre. This was with the previous CoreFTP build, and also the latest.

Apart from these recent UI issues, it's just fine on Vista64.

Ok, some more poking around has solved my problem, and may help the one above.

Right click on the sites, select Font -> Reset Font.

After that, all is good, couldn't be easier.
