Q: "Project view" : cannot organize projects any longer (Aperture 3.4.3)

Luky,

please compare your systems with the poster's system in this thread

Re: aperture

; you seem to have exactly the same problem, and it would be good to know, if this is a bug realated to certain Macs only:

Regards

Léonie

P.S: The error message you are seeing in the Console Window is a message "Invalid context" is a message from OpenGL libraries, that may occur in Full Screen View. Are you using full screen view? I only use it when adjusting images.

Could you please check two things:

• Do the buttons "Group by Year" and "Group by Folder" work, when you disconnect the secondary display and exit "Full Screen" mode?
• Do the buttons "Group by Year" and "Group by Folder" work, when you set your System Preferences "Language & Text" to "English"? You will have to log off and on again, after changing the preferences for this change to be effective.

Regards

Léonie

PPS : http://discussions.apple.com/message/20518321#20518321 (lucky.lucb) and http://discussions.apple.com/message/20518324#20518324 (bernard454) should be linked, or even merged, shouldn't they ? Is it possible ?

They are already linked - if you look to the right, there is a link to Bernard's thread in the "Incoming Links" section.

Let's continue the discussion here and post any solutions in Bernard's thread too.

Lucky, that's it!

I set my system to "Français" in "langue et texte" and now I cannot use

the buttons "Group by Year" and "Group by Folder" any longer, just like you.

Does the problem vanish, if you set your system to "English"?

So there is a bug in the localization files.

Kirby, if you still are listening, could you please confirm this?

Cheers

Léonie

PS : yes I'm using full screen view on my alternate monitors ("Visualiseur secondaire" in the French version)

Added: Do the error messages in the Console window stop, if you disable "Full Screen" mode?

Yes it does :-)

(as said in Bernard454's thread)

 

Thank you very much Leonie

You are welcome. That is great! One mistery solved

Newby question : how can we be reasonably sure that the Apple guys have noticed this bug ?

Use Aperture's feedback form to send a bug report to Apple:

http://www.apple.com/feedback/aperture.html

I already filed a bug report as well - the more, the merrier!

Cheers

Léonie
