When I double click on a report object, I just get a cross icon and cannot edit the object - can only move it

Solved!
Go to solution

I'm using DIAdem 2014. Previously, when I would double click on a an object in the Report view I would be able to edit it. Now, I just get a cross icon that allows me to move the object but do nothing else. This happens for saved layouts as well as new ones. When I open the same file in DIAdem 2012, I do not have this problem. 

 

I figure I must have accidentally changed some setting, but I can't figure out how to undo it. Any ideas?

Does this happen for any report object or is it specific to graphs or tables or images? Additionally, can you still double-click on a view object inside your DIAdem environment and open that property window? It would be interesting to see if this is localized to a certain tab or object type or if it's general to your DIAdem 2014 enviornment as a whole.

Hi jordy,

 

Walter Rick mentioned to me this morning that he remembers there was an issue like this in DIAdem 2014 that was fixed in a subsequent service pack.  Can you go to the "Help>>About" menu and tell us the exact version number that you're working with?  Or if you remember, just tell us if you've installed a DIAdem 2014 service pack (and if so which one).

This happens to me on text, graph, and table objects - I haven't tried others.

 

My version information is DIAdem 14.0.0f5641.

Hi jordyjordyjordy,

 

This is version 2014 without service pack. Please can you install the SP1 for DIAdem 2014, which you can download here:
