I am not sure if this is the correct place to post, but I am running Logos 9.10.0.0017 on my Macbook, and am having trouble deleting and/or renaming different layouts that I have created in the past. Everytime I attempt to "right click", the box appears for a brief second and immediately disappears before I can select it. Is there an alternate way to remove existing layouts?

    You can hover over the layout image on the right-hand side of the menu and then select "Delete".  It also has the option to "Rename".

    This is a long-standing bug on the Mac version of Logos. You need to right-click two or three times in succession to get it to work, but it will work.

    In Windows.... I have to click on layouts, then right-click on the layout I want to delete then click delete.

    This works for me.

    then right-click on the layout

    Doing so (for me on Mac) causes the dialog box to open, followed by the layout immediately opening.

    I trust you, but I have not had need to delete a layout for a very long time and have not heard of this issue. Is there an open case?

    I just tried 10 times and the layout opened each time, not allowing me to access the dialogue box.

    We do have an open case for this bug. I've added a link to this thread so that we can post an update when it is fixed.

    I have experienced this on various 'rename' operations. It is spasmodic and I have found a restart often makes the problem go away for months.
