Library panel blank

I dont know what that specific view is called, but the initial view is fine, when changing to the column view (which has mytags, ect) it is blank. When i hover over a resource however, it shows info. Has anyone run into this?

thanks - mike

It doesn't happen to me however....

Look to the right at the scroll bar and see if the indicator is showing that you've scrolled to the very end of the list automatically and have thus hidden your library off screen. (Accidentally of course.)

No, its blank all the way down. It has the rank numbers on the left though, and like i said shows the info popup when i hover over the rank. But the actually listings are blank.

is Logos4 Indexing? If so perhaps you need to wait for indexing to finish.

If not, could you provide a screen shot and add it to your post? (see wiki http://wiki.logos.com/Screenshot)

It is not indexing. I can't give a screenshot because i am on a windows machine and the library panel closes when i mouse out to snipping tool, unless you know of a way to get this to stay open?

try using the old fashion way:

Windows

Find the “PrintScreen” key on your keyboard and press it (the
key may be labelled PrtSc/PrntScr). This will put a copy of your
screen in the clipboard buffer.
Then open Microsoft Paint, or some other graphics editor.
In the menu click EDIT>PASTE to paste the contents of the clipboard to your new graphic.
Choose FILE>>SAVE AS
Save the file with a meaningful name as a JPG, GIF or PNG file (not BMP/Bitmap as they are too large).
Remember where you save the file.

Then when adding a post here, click on the paperclip in the editor toolbar and in the pop-up window locate the file that you saved in step 5-6.

i don't see the horizontal scroll bar at the bottom. Is it's position set to the far left?

EDIT: also you might try right clicking on the column bar at the top to see if any of your column headings are checked. (see wiki Available Columns in the detailed view)

it was the lack of headings - thanks steve! strange that you would have to manually add these?

You shouldn't have to. Your settings must have been corrupted or cleared by some fluke (maybe on install).

Do you have a Mac? I've only seen Mac users have this problem. If so, you should be posting in the Mac forum to get the best help.

I had this problem with some pop-up that disappeared as soon as I attempted to capture it. Dave Hooton suggested I get Irfan View. With it I found that I can launch the screen capture on a 5 second delay then open the pop-up and wait for Irfan View to beep notifying me that it had taken a picture.
