Lost Quick Linker
« on: July 03, 2006, 07:34:24 pm »
I have Quick Linker enabled (by default).  I just started up EA and the Quick Linker wasn't enabled.

I re-enabled it though the Options dialog.

Given I didn't disable the Quick Linker on purpose, is there some keystroke combination or other mechanism that may have caused me to accidentally disable the Quick Linker?

TIA,
Paolo

There's no keyboard shotcut to the swicth, Paolo. Just the options pane can be opened via shortcut. I suspect all of the options to reside in the datamodel (someone could have touched that). I'm a bit suspicious about the use of the Registry, though :-/

Hello Paolo,

Thanks for reporting this issue.  I've found the cause:  the QL is disabled in EA Lite, on closing the Local Options dialog with this version, the disabled setting is saved to the registry impacting all versions.

Please find that this is corrected in our next build :)

Glad to help :)

But, for the record, I wasn't using EA Lite.  However, I guess the fix will also fix it for my situation.
