Search function does not work anymore Thread poster: Patrizia Riegler

Hi all, My search function (ctrl+f) does not work anymore. I tried to close and reopen CafeTran and I tried to restart my computer, but nothing helps. When I press ctrl+f, CafeTran does not react, not even when I go to Edit -> Find... . I hope someone can help me soon! Thanks, Patrizia | | | CafeTran Training (X) Netherlands Local time: 00:13
Are you by any chance working on a Mac? If so, I noticed this behaviour too. I also noticed that once I've opened the dialogue box via the menu, the keyboard shortcut becomes active again.

I use Windows 10 (if that helps). Unfortunately, CafeTran does not open the dialogue box (Edit - Find...). It worked until yesterday evening, but today in the morning not anymore. I have also tried to disconnect my external monitor and keybord, but still nothing. | | | CafeTran Training (X) Netherlands Local time: 00:13 Reboot your computer? | Mar 9, 2017 |
Did you reboot your computer? Any software active that interferes with the keyboard, e.g. a macro tool? | |

I rebooted the computer several times. The keyboard shortcut works in other programmes, only CafeTran is affected. When I try the shortcut, the mouse disappears and the line showing the project's name and the programme version (upper left side) turns from black to light grey, as if there was a window open somewhere, but I can click on my target segment and continue writing (this is not possible when a window is open). | | | Igor Kmitowski Poland Local time: 00:13 Member (2016) English to Polish + ... External monitor | Mar 9, 2017 |
Hi Patrizia, You may have used an external monitor. The Find dialog was displayed there and after disconnecting, CafeTran 'remembers' its position on the external screen which may be off-screen in the main monitor if it has a different resolution. If this is the case, connect to that external monitor and check. | | | Patrizia Riegler Austria Local time: 00:13 English to German + ... TOPIC STARTER
I connected and disconnected my external monitor, but the dialogue box remained off screen. The problem was that I moved my laptop next to the monitor yesterday (usually I have it in front of it) and changed the screen settings (position) accordingly. Now that I changed the position settings the way they were yesterday, I could finally see the dialogue box. Thanks for the help! | | | CafeTran Training (X) Netherlands Local time: 00:13 Reset the location of the Find dialogue | Mar 10, 2017 |
Can it be implemented that the position of the Find dialogue is reset to the (centre of the) screen with the CafeTran menu bar, on every start of the app? | | | To report site rules violations or get help, contact a site moderator: You can also contact site staff by submitting a support request » Search function does not work anymore TM-Town | Manage your TMs and Terms ... and boost your translation business
