Bug in the Find tool for XMetaL 7?

[fjeneau9]

XMetaL Author Enterprise – Version#: 7.0.0.103
Win 7 Ultimate x64

I just installed XMetaL 7, opened an XML file, and went to Edit->Find and Replace.

I cannot click on the Element or Entity tab.

Anyone else have this issue?

The only thing I can think of is that you are viewing your document in Plain Text view.

Is that the case? If you are in Tags On or Normal view then I cannot reproduce the issue here.

Closing and reopening didn't help and reinstalling that version didn't help.

I wound up just downloading and installing the newest version – Version#: 7.0.0.111 currently – and it works now.

(ps. pretty sure the reply from myboss1234567 is spam)

I take that back, it's giving me the same behavior again.  I open a document, go to 'Find and Replace' and the 'Element' tag is not clickable.  Typing something in doesn't allow it to activate either.

Is there something in the XMetaL cache that I can clear that might help?

There is no caching involved.

Can you provide a screen shot of the dialog so we can see what you are seeing?
If the screen shot doesn't show which view you are working in please let us know that as well.

Here you go. (the 'about' page is included to show version info)

I cannot click on the Element or Entity tabs.  Typing something in like '' doesn't help either.
