Greetings from Denmark with this brilliant product.
I’ve been using FinalBuilder intensively over the last 5 years, and the new IDE introduced in FB6 is good.
It is very productive to have multiple projects open at the same time in the same IDE.
Search works fine across multiple projects, but the selection of a found item can only jump to the correct operation of the project if it is shown in the first tab. In fact, jumping always to the project in the first tab.
I’ve been using FinalBuilder build 1283 for quite some time. I have just upgraded to the latest build 2056, which has the same bad behavior.
TIA

Hi Theo
We have had this reported before, but I wasn’t able to reproduce the problem, it always jumps to the correct project in my testing. Are you able to create two sample projects and the exact steps to reproduce this?

Hi
I’ve tried to make just a small example, but It did not have the problem 🙂
So, instead you get 2 of my fbp files.
Try to search for “execute” or any other keyword which exist in both projects.
Thx for your quick answer.
Theo

once again…
(file upload does not work correctly, a specific file cannot be uploaded, and another I cannot delete from list)

the file upload problem: the first file in list is never uploaded, only the second (probably you need to move this to another bug report, I will not report it further)

Hi Theo,
It appears the issue with these projects and searching through them is that they have lost their project id’s along the way. Simply save the projects as another name and then test the searching again.
Let me know how this goes for you.
