Issues with v2

Hi,

I've been using the previous version for several months, and I just switched to version 2.0. There are some differences between the version, and I'm trying to figure out what I am doing wrong.

1 - Security tab

When I create a job, I can encrypt my data without problem. When I reselect the job, it seems the job is automatically set to decrypt the data on next use (which is fine). However sometime it takes a while when I select an encrypt/decrypt job (30 seconds to 1 minutes) before the application become responsive again.

Also, I'm trying to put the @drive@ variable in my file list, but I haven't figured how to do it from the new interface yet. My guess is that because of this, when I select a job name when the drive letter has changed, the file in the job won't show up.

Can you assist me a little bit? Smile

minor bugs?

in Sync/Rules :
-deleted rules reappear after deleting and restart -> Rules.ini has to be edited manually to delete the rule
Font selection:
-works, but no change of font colour is accepted (writes to the settings.ini, but isn´t read on restart -> default black is the only fonts colour)

thanks, I shall look into the first point, very annoying. As for the second point, sounds like a wxWidgets issue, I shall again look into it.

no, I didn´t ?

Why should I ? Why should I save a deleted rule? I´ll do a test next time

EDIT: made the test
deleting a test rule and pressing "save" gives an error prompt like "you must have a name for this rule´s set". Perhaps this is of importance: I upgraded from Toucan 1.2?
Have to delete it manually from the .ini
I´m going to test with a fresh install with out upgrading and come back...
EDIt: no upgrding related bug , either. Did a fresh install and the rules are kept in the same way..
Any further suggestions?

With

your first point, are you saying that when you select a previous job from the drop down box it becomes unresponsive?

For the second point, there is a little button on the far right hand that allows you to add portable variables, is this what you were after?

And thanks for the feedback Smile

1- When I select a previous

1- When I select a previous job from the drop down box, yes it becomes unresponsive.

2- I used the little button, at the far right. A pop-up shows up, asking to select the variable then press OK, but after that point I'm clueless, as the highlighted file isn't showing any path modification or something visual.

made a .bat put into the Toucan main folder

Start .\..\..\PortableApps\Toucan\App\Toucan\Toucan MysafedJob

there comes up an error window: can´t load image from file"addvar.png": file doesn´t exist
if I press "ok" the job is done
did I miss something or is there a commandline problem?
Coding error with the .bat?
How to get rid of the error? -> the file is there in the /app/toucan folder

Gah

I thought I fixed this, the problem is the working directory, if you do this:

Cd .\..\..\PortableApps\Toucan\App\Toucan\
Start Toucan MysafedJob

Does that fix the problem?
