Bug report: entering names in Cygnus editor
« on: January 15, 2022, 18:22:38 »
BUG REPORT - ANCESTRIS

Give us a summary of the bug :

Which Operating System? : Windows

Which version of the O.S.? : examples: W10 21H1

Which version of Ancestris? : 11.0.10897

What is your Java version? : Oracle JRE 1.8.0_311-b11

What are the windows opened on your Ancestris application? : Dynamic Treeview, cygnus editor, aries editor, gedcom editor

This bug is related to the application itself or a plugin? : application

If it's about a plugin, which plugin? : N/A

If you use the beta version, do you update Ancestris each time a new version is available? : N/A

This bug appeared right after an update (you didn't get it before, and right now, you have it) : unknown, new install

Which version of the module is concerned (check the "Help - About" dialog box) : Cygnus 11.0.10883

What is the process that makes the bug to appear (the more details  you can give, the better it is) :
In the Cygnus editor, if I try to enter a name (firstname or lastname) for a new individual (or edit the name of an existing) then it is not possible to type a name.  As soon as I press a key, if that character exists in any existing name, it wipes out the text in the input field and replaces with just that character and presents a popup of any names with that character.  If it's a character not present in any existing name then it allows it to be typed. 

This works fine in the Aries editor.

Hi,

Yes, this is a known issue for which we can only suggest to set the 'Nimbus' look and feel in the Preferences, Display tab. There is a drop down list with choices standard, Metal and Nimbus. Choose Nimbus.
Hope this fixes the display in Cygnus for you.

Regards,
Frederic

Aha, yes.  That fixed it.  Sorry, did try searching but didn't find anything that matched.

Thanks for your prompt help!
Steve.
