I recently moved to v4.0.1 build 4048, running on Win2K and have encountered a small problem. The "Favorites" list in the file save dialog has stopped working.

I work on files on a development box and production server, and save files from one to the other all day long. The "Favorites" list made it very easy and quick. Now, I when I tell PhpEd to save a location as a favorite, it appears in the list, but disappears the first time I try to actually use it.

Has anyone else seen this behavior?

Hi Bill,
Please give 4058 a try It's the latest build at the moment.

I am using build 4058, but mistyped it in my post.

hmm, I can't replicate the problem in 4058.
Could you please provide more info on the problem?

TIA


PS

isn't it a kind of generalization too? and according to itself it can't be true

Hi Dmitri,

I don't know exactly what other information I can offer. When saving a file, I can add Favorites using the dropdown menu. The first time I try to use them, however, they just disappear from the list. Nothing else happens.

Yes, that's (supposed to be) the joke.

well.
I tried the following:
-launched the IDE
-opened some files
-File->Save As
-clicked on Favorites icon (star) and selected in Add to favorites in the popup.
-clicked cancel
-left the ide
-lauched the ide again
-clicked on File->Open
-clicked on Favorites, and directory that was added before was still there.

so I assume it works for me.

I tried the same steps as you, but when I get to the last step and click on the folder name, the menu goes away and the directory doesn't change. Then, when I look at the Favorites list again, the directory is gone from the list.

Before this happens, I can go to the Edit Favorites window and move items around. When I exit it, the items are reordered as they should be. But they still disappear when I choose them.

I'm going to try reinstalling and see if that changes anything.

did it happen on local directories or on remote ones too?

It happens on both local and remote directories.

Thanks for the screenshots you sent me.
Problem is replicated and fixed in build 4059.
