property explorer doesnt open

Post by need2know »

Version 4.10.0(rev. 0), Windows 11

Hi,

to trace signals, which were previously set by sim.setIntProperty, ive tried to use the "property explorer".
By selecting modules>developer tool>property explorer it doesnt open, despite showing "running".
I´ve tried a few restarts, which didnt get a change.
neither i can find a separat window of coppelia in the task manager, which could might show the property explorer.
this problem occured already a few times.

Cheers

Add-on dialogs usually store their last position in absolute coordinates. Could it be that you changed the number of monitors attached to your machine? Or that the window is barely visible, located at one of the screen borders?

You can try to reset the memorized coordinates with:

Code: Select all

sim.removeProperty(sim.handle_app, 'customData.propertyExplorer.uiPos')
Let me know if that worked.

Cheers

You were right!
i use different setups and the problem only occured on the setup with fewer monitors.
while having this problem with the smaller setup, your suggested code (run in coppelia-console) doesnt get the window into the field of view.
thanks for your help
cheers

Make sure to close the property editor (via the Modules menu) before applying the command
