Devtools gone

Post by TIV73 »

Hey there,
I just installed rev2268 and noticed that I can't open the devtools anymore. Ctrl+Alt+Shift does nothing, and the 'Open DevTools in Chrome' just opens a regular instance of chrome, without any context to mediamonkey.

I found a 'Developer Mode' flag in the About dialog window, but it's not sticky. If I enable it, close the window and re-open it, the option is deactivated again.

Is there a trick or method to re-enable the dev console?

For me opening DevTools works in 2268 (both Ctrl+Alt+Shift) and 'Open DevTools in Chrome' works fine.

Is this still occuring? Probably just a temporary glitch?

I'm afraid it's still an issue. To verify this, I spun up a Windows 10 VM (version 2004, last updated about two weeks ago, no modifications done whatsoever after windows was installed) and tried it there:

I also tried installing in portable mode, running mediamonkey as administrator, and restarting the application and windows. The result remained the same, unfortunately.

Is the flag adding settings in the persistent.json (or any other config file) that I can just set manually?

I just installed 2269 and, while the developer-mode flag is still not sticky, opening the devtools works again! Thanks a lot for the help!
