Delays disappearing

[marcgallant]

Once in a while, after dragging a bunch of lines (mouse clicks, keystrokes, and delays) from one area to another within the same task (Copy and Paste does the same thing), and then selecting Save button, the delays get removed. This is really annoying, especially if you drag over like 20 lines and have delays between them all, you have to go and recreate them all over again.

Has this been encountered before by anybody else? I currently have AA 4.5.1 but this has been happening for a while now.

Is it possible that one of the FILTER buttons is getting clicked?

I seem to remember that one of them filters out delays...

I wish it was that simple but not. All other delays are still there, just some of them disappear once in a while, but not all the time. It seems to be mostly after dragging items, or copy and pasting....

thanks for the heads up.

I've had some "errors" followed by the AA app complete shutting down when dragging and dropping.

I'll be sure to make copies of things before editing.

Yeah definitely a good idea always having a backup.

I was just testing and noticed something. After dragging a Delay, I double-clicked it and instead of havin a delay of 1000 ms like it used to, it showed 0 as the delay.

Hope this helps.

Hello,

We tried to reproduce the scenario at our end and it did reproduce. However, this thing can only happen with recorded delays. If you will insert Delay command manually through task editor and drag it the scenario will not reproduce.

We have forwarded this issue to our product development team for fixing in next release.
