Sorry to hear that darbsllim -- does it black screen everytime you start up now or was it immediately after the update? Can you tell us a bit more about your system so that we can reproduce this and make sure it doesn't happen on future updates? – Winson, on May 23, 2009 12:39

Ah, that might be it -- we'll take a look at this and get back to you.

Thanks,
Winson

That's interesting -- we're not seeing this particular issue in-house (see image below), but we'll take another look at it.

Hi howar31,

It wasn't your chinese at all -- it's just a lot easier to debug the problem when you can see it visually!

In this case, it seems to be an issue with full/half width characters (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fullwidt...), but as a workaround can you turn on your half-width text input in your windows IME and try typing out a new sticky note?
(see 1.3 in http://www.newconcept.com/Reference/c...)

Thanks,

Glad it worked out AR, do you know which version you were updating from? – Winson, on May 22, 2009 16:53

Can you post a screenshot to clarify the problem? – Winson, on May 22, 2009 16:37

Hi JAC4488,

There is a known issue with that version -- can you update to the latest version? (You can either restart BumpTop or re-download it from the site)

Thanks for your patience,

Hi JAC4488,

Which version of BumpTop are you running? (Press F1 to find out) – Winson, on May 22, 2009 15:31

Hi AR,

Did you update manually or through the automatic update process? It shouldn't be displaying the BumpTop uninstall survey in the latter case. – Winson, on May 22, 2009 15:13

Hi there,

We're having trouble reproducing this on our machines -- can you redownload the file at:
http://download.bumptop.com/BumpTopIn...

It may have been a corrupted download or something similar.

We're looking into this now, thanks.

Do any other applications exhibit problems?

Hi there,

Your scene.bump files may have been corrupted when it tried to write it -- can you try removing your user data and settings?

See:

Section: "I've been using BumpTop for a while, and now it doesn't start up! How do I clear out my settings and start fresh?"

Thanks,

Hi guys,

Yes, if you have 3036 VIP it should be updating automatically, otherwise, you can get it at:

Will be coming in the next update -- we're still writing and testing the various gestures on as many multi-touch machines as we can get our hands on atm. (Note that Windows 7 will be required) – Winson, on May 21, 2009 22:20

Winson replied on May 21, 2009 19:04 to the question "Vista Start Menu problem." in BumpTop:

Hi David,

We don't actually have a context menu shell extension (since early beta), but we do have an experimental shell extension for Bump-this-Folder which is not installed by default (must be manually enabled in the BumpTop Settings).

Could another program have installed this CContextMenu object that you are referring to?

Build 3038 update for VIP testing

Hi guys,

Justin's away these next few weeks so I'll be updating the GS forums when possible. We've just pushed out a new version (3038) for final VIP testing before we push out for a wider release. It mainly contains the translation-related changes from before as well as a few minor fixes.

Note that this build will report as 3007 under the F1 info, even though it contains recent changes.

Please let us know through this thread if you are having trouble with the installer, or possible regressions with BumpTop functionality.

Thanks for your help!
