Hi,
I am using Gideros on mac. I once closed the Files window and Preview window and now I can not find them anymore. see picture. Tried to uninstall and reinstall but still the problem. Also I can not close an open file.

GiderosStudio.ini file should be deleted i guess.
In windows it is located in AppData/Roaming/GiderosMobile .

But in macintosh i don't know where is it. Just search for it.

I found an old post maybe it is still there.
Please check this path.
On Mac, it's stored at: ~/.config/giderosmobile.com/GiderosStudio.ini

This does raise the question of why Gideros does this at all. I get annoyed having to find some funny ini file and delete it when the player disappears.. it really shouldn't do that at all.

ouguolin

thanks a lot, talis and antix. I found the ini file and deleted it. Now the studio is working. But I still can not close a file, no close button on file tab at all, is this a bug? See attach.

I don't have mac to test for now. But it seems like a bug. In Win 10 everything is ok. If anyone who has mac can confirm this then it is a bug.

vitalitymobile

Yes I can confirm there is no close button on the
file tab.

Yes! Press Left side of the tab will close it!

It's to do with the default theme not having the graphic for the red x.

imho the Metro Dark theme is the best one (I tinkered with it a little to perfect it )

ouguolin

vitalitymobile, you are right, thanks. hgy29, thanks for the information, I will check issues list first next time.

Gideros is open source - if someone wants to check the theme they use and fix any issues then that would be great. Then submit the fix to github for inclusion for everyone.

Themes are in the Gideros folder (in program files on Windows), then look in the Resources sub folder and you should see Themes.

Hmm.. I just reset to the default theme and all seems ok to me (the red X is in the tab):

(just noticed that this may only affect OSX... Can an OSX user check the Metro Dark theme and see if that has a red X ?)

vitalitymobile

Here you are

I'm on windows and using the default theme. I have never had an issue with not being able to close tabs in studio.

@vitalitymobile it must be something fundamental in themes - like the wrong slash being used in themes for osx - it's the opposite of windows.
