Cannot delete text in XML view

Post by awinnefeld »

I have come across a strange problem with one of our Flare projects. In this project, I cannot delete any text or other elements anymore while I am in the XML editor view. If I open the text editor, I am still able to delete anything I want. This happens with all files in this particular project, while three other projects we are maintaining with Flare do not have this problem at all.

Is there anything I can try to repair the project? We are still using Flare 2018, if this is important.

I would try the defaults first.

Close Flare and in Windows Explorer delete the \Analyzer folder.
Ensure that .NET is installed. (Sounds like it is, as your other projects are working fine.)

Thanks for the reply! I was able to find a solution in the meantime. Turns out my description was not entirely correct, the problem did in fact occur in all projects (I did only realize this after the posting). Somehow, and I really don't know how this happened, the list of keyboard shortcuts in the Flare Options > Keyboard Shortcuts was emptied. Resetting them to Factory Defaults solved the problem.
