Hello,
we are switching from TestStand 2010 to TestStand 2010 SP1, and today I noticed the follow behavior.
If I place the cursor in an Expression of a step, the keyboard layout switches from german (DE) to englisch (US).
You can imagine that's very unfavorable to program.The problem occurs on several machine running WindowsXP.
Funnily enough on a pc with Win7, all is looking good. Furthermore I can't discover such behavior on previous versions of TestStand.
Has somebody an idea?
Thanks in advance
Carsten

Carsten -
We changed the implementation in TestStand 2010 SP1 to resolve an issue that occurred when the Hebrew language layout is installed on the machine. You may be encountering this behavior because of this change in implementation if you have the Hebrew language layout installed.
Can you verify if you have Hebrew installed? If you do not, then something else is causing this behavior and we will need to investigate it more closely.
I look forward to your response.

Manooch -
we don't have installed the hebrew language on our machines.
It seems there is another problem 😞

It looks like this is unexpected behavior that is a side effect of new functionality we added in TestStand 2010 SP1. I have informed our R&D team of this behavior. To work around this issue in the meantime, you can execute a Statement step that contains the following expression:
RunState.Engine.ConfigFile.Data.SetValUnsignedInteger64("ExpressionEditOptions.AutoLanguageOptions", 1, 0x2ui64), RunState.Engine.ConfigFile.IncChangeCount(), RunState.Engine.ConfigFile.SaveFileIfModified(false)
Hope this helps.
