Re: Two puzzling behaviours
Hi Kevin
What product are you using?
Usually when I get that error message I am trying to paste something onto a layer that is not visible, or in some cases locked. And it is very easy to have the wrong layer selected. Those would be my two suspects.
I just tried adding two Eyecatcher Cloud Gallery widgets without problem and both work fine in Web Designer Premium 7.
I have version 7.1.2.18680 7 October 2011
Re: Two puzzling behaviours
Thanks for the quick reply.
I am using Designer Pro 7.1.2.18680, the same as you.
I understand what you mean by choosing the wrong layer, but in these cases there are no wrong or locked layers, I'm just trying to paste on to the page, which I presume by default is the MouseOff layer. When I get the error message, I have to go to the Page & Layer Gallery, select the page, then select the "click to solo object" button for the MouseOff layer in order to paste the object successfully. All the layers for the offending page are unlocked and visible, hence my puzzlement at getting the error in the first place.
Re: Two puzzling behaviours
Yeah I hear you. Things like this drive me nuts.
Or you publish you page and realize that most of your content is on another layer. Ack!
