I've just switched from FB4 to FB5 and I'm having problems with all my Delphi 2006 compiles as the Global Library Path settings in FinalBuilder options.

i.e. I go into Final Builder options, Delphi Library paths, change the Delphi 2006 library path, click save and then come back and it will have ignored by changes and reverted back to the registry defaults every time, even though 'Use regisitry for Library paths' is not set.

FB4 did not have this problem.

Is this a known issue? Is there some workaround. Reverting all my final builder projects back to FB4 projects will be time consuming and frustrating.

TTFN,&nbsp; Paul.

Hi Tate   
  
I can confirm that this indeed fixes the problem.   
  
As an unrelated somewhat cosmetic issue, when FB is running in 256 colour mode (i.e. it's detected that I'm using a TS session into our build server) and&nbsp;I open and then save the FB options dialog, it seems to lose it's 256 colour smarts and starts looking ugly and dithered again.   
  
I've noticed this happen from time to time and never clicked as to what I'd done that caused it but going into the options to test the above fix made it obvious.   
  
TTFN,   
Paul.

thanks for confirming. Will look into the 256 color problem also - thanks for figuring out what was causing it 🙂
