Been meaning to ask about this for ages.
Whenever I select the rollup tool for the actions/properties palette.
It ceases to function.

So I dont use it!
But thinking about it - it is a great function - so be good to find out why and if others have fallen foul of it?

I had forgotten about it!!! I just tried it and I couldn't close the window after selecting it. and couldn't deselect it. Had to shut down and restart Opus to turn it off. I never used it, because I kept moving the mouse off the window by accident when I would be looking at an option---took me ages to find out how to turn it off :-)

I know - it's the only way you can "turn it off" by closing, restarting and clicking the drop down - to get it not to - if you know what I mean.

Surprised not to have seen a post on this before to be honest.
I suppose most people are using two screens and just keep the dialogue box constantly open?

Has anyone else got any suggestions?

Pete

'Yes', another vote to Fix the Rollup activator on the Properties dialog box.

The posts above might seem to understate the issue.

If used, you are stuck with the Rollup mode AND you cannot make any selections or changes via the properties dialog. I can confirm also...that I have to shutdown and reboot Opus to fix the issue... get back in and UNselect the rollup. Then "don't use it", "avoid it".

I've never used it, since it can be opened using Ctrl-R for properties, Ctrl-E for actions, or double clicking on an object, and it can be closed using Ctrl-F4, OK or Cancel.

Be nice to see it fixed (or removed?) as if you inadvertently activate it - it does lock up and means you have to fiddle around to turn it off.
Are DW aware that it is broken?
