It was nice for a few days- but the bug is back, having to close and re-open Logos to update PBB after changes.[:@]

    I don't know that it was ever really fixed. Some users rarely experience it... some experience it intermittently, and others all the time. [:s]

    Ok something must be going on- no crash or resultant files- but along with this- system as started to scroll by numerous pages instead of 1 line as the settings are inWindows. I have verified these setting, restarting does not correct this issue, any suggestions?

    Yeah, mine was all the time- then stopped with last update- but now has returned. PBB is very important to me since I do not use notes but a Win based app to compile notes and linking then make a PBB for in system use- gets frustrating.

    Do you have Columns set to "None" or to something else?

    Anything other than "None" will result in "page-scrolling" behaviour

    I'll check when I get back- could be something happened.

    Ditto it was changed on 2 of the PBB's I was working on- not sure why since I was not in the drop menu for any reason- but thanks for the heads up fixed the issue.

    Whyndell,

    Can you describe what steps you are doing when this bug shows up?

    Whyndell,

    Can you describe what steps you are doing when this bug shows up?

    I create a "layout' of the PBB I'm working on, I create it initially with book cover, setup information, then the title and introductory pages, then begin on the main portions of the book one chapter at a time, so I can review how it looks in Logos. This step is important for me since I sometimes reformat for my use, not necessarily what the publisher did. 

    I began to notice after this last post that leaving the PBB open while doing rebuild caused the bug to appear, so I manually close the PBB each time now and have had no further issue with it.

    Prior to this post I did open my attest PBB project in its saved layout, which has 10 resources plus PBB, and did several rebuilds without manually closing PBB each time it succeeded.

    So whatever the issue is it must be very random, but for now I have been able to complete 2 PBB's of 300+ pages in record time.

    Side note:

    It would be nice if the L4 linking was as reliable, sometimes it takes several tries to get the right hilite to link L4, not sure why. I extensively link the resources from Logos to my PBB's.
