Project PlugIn -> when will be available in more than one group?

[ldm]

Hi All,

Currently the Project Plug-In is available only in a single files group. Some time ago it was promised that in the new release the Project Plug-In will be integrated into the EmEditor Core so that it could be used in any window/instance/group. What happens with that? I don’t see any changes in the v17.0…

Thank you!

I support this request! I don’t have words strong enough to emphasize it. A group is a project and requires a totally different list of files.

Actually, multiple instances of the Projects plug-in are allowed (but not supported) on the latest version.

You can click “OK” when you see the dialog:
“The projects plug-in can be displayed only in one group window.”

“allowed (but not supported) ” – could you elaborate please? :-)

In the current version, a solution (or a project) in one group could overwrite another solution in another group. That’s why you will have to be careful when you save a solution.

Dear Yutaka,
I am afraid that your answer raised more questions.What should we be careful about when saving a “solution”? Must we have a different one open in a different “group”?

[Yutaka Emura]

Just be careful when you need to modify a solution. If you modify the same solution in more than one group at the same time, one group can overwrite a change by another group.
If you don’t need to change a solution often, you shouldn’t be worried.
