Can't select controls in design screen

Nate · June 10, 2021, 12:14pm

As of yesterday I’m unable to select any controls in the design screen. I can select them in the project explorer, but I need to add existing controls to a container and I am unable to do this since I can’t select (either right or left clicking) the control…which leaves me totally stuck.

Can’t think of anything that might have changed other than recently updating to MacOS 11.4?

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Nate

MacOS 11.4 should be OK, if your copy of AppStudio is up to date. What version are you using?

That was the issue…I wasn’t on latest version. I updated and now we’re good. Thanks!

Hello, I have the same problem, I’m unable to select any controls in the design screen. I have macOS 11.4 and AppStudio 8.5.4.0.

Any advise?

Thank you

When you run the app, are there any messages in the Chrome Console?

It is a mobile app, it runs well with VoltBuilder Native App.

Good. Can you check the Console for messages? There may be a clue there as to what is going on.

This is the console log:

That’s not the one I’m looking for.

When you run the app, are there any messages in the Chrome REMOTE Console?

Salvador_Romero · July 14, 2021, 3:00pm

Sorry!, here it goes.

ghenne · July 14, 2021, 3:09pm

Nothing unusual there. Could you zip your project folder and send it to me? Let’s see if it happens here, too.

Salvador_Romero · July 14, 2021, 3:10pm

Sure, thank you!

ghenne · July 14, 2021, 3:30pm

Thanks for sending this.

Your project still has jQuery Mobile controls in it. You need to convert those to Boostrap.
