What's the proper way to copy a nav bar? I want to copy it so that I can change it from a horizontal nav bar to a vertical but I don't want to delete the one I have, just add one similar and keep the same attributes and I'm getting an access violation.
Sue, as described, that should simply work.
No idea why it isn't other than the usual right-click the application and pick Run as Admin for one session.

Thanks, Acorn. It only had the problem with one pre-made from the catalog, just that one. I grabbed another one and it copied just fine.
Odd! Appreciate the thought and will try it...I bet that might work!
Sue, do tell which the duff one was.Quote:

When this happens, and it should not, try creating a new website, copy the nav bar or problem object to the new page and try the operation again. Sometimes a file gets corrupted and if it works in a new document then the problem is with the corrupted file and not the nav bar or problem object.
Tried it, still violation error and does not drop it into the new document.Quote:

Sue could you attach xar/web file causing this access violation?
Happy to give it a try! I have uploaded it but it doesn't show up, says waiting for TalkGraphics and then nothing.Quote:

Sue, it uploaded into TG for our download perfectly.Quote:

It's just you then!

So what would make it have a violation on my computer? Any clue?
Just to let you know you're not alone Sue ;)
I had initial problems downloading your attachment (it has a double link) but somehow I eventually got it to download.
Here's the odd results I get, unlike Acorn & Gary:
So this sounds like a hardware problem? Maybe a graphics card issue?
Suggest you send this web/xar to support for further investigation ;)
I've asked Xara to look into this and linked to this thread.
Do you think so Gary? I only have a Windows inbuilt graphics card, nothing fancy. I would have thought Xara could handle this quite easily.Quote:

And why the memory warning? The file is only 692Kb's. Strange you & Acorn can view and amend the file whilst Sue and I have AVE's etc ???
I can get a copy to drop into the document if I ignore the violation message and press the "x" to close, but then the links are empty, but the titles are there.
I have a graphics card, GTX1050Ti, Windows 10 Pro 64bit, 16 gigs of RAM.
Thanks, Gary, for sending the issue to be looked into...I did send a report a few times to them. This is just baffling! Let me know if you find out anything! And I will do the same.
Is there a way to identify which Nav Bar that is in the Catalog that we are dealing with?
If I right drag the navbar it copies without issue and I can make it vertical. However, copying either of the navbars produces the error and trying to paste into another web document causes a crash with the attached errors.
I got the usual warnings of link and hover assigned to the same button, but either ignoring or accepting the offer to remove the link made no difference.
As a workaround until something more permanent pops up, why not convert the horizontal to vertical and Save As BBVertical?
(i7, 16GB RAM, GeForce GTX 750 Ti, Win 10 x64) For those looking for hardware comparisons.

Chris, thank you. I automatically right-clicked dragged and dropped; it is the copy & paste that causes the AVE.Quote:

Thanks Sue, I have logged this with our developers to investigate and fix. Rest assured it's 100% not a hardware related issue, your computer is fine!
Thanks
Rob
Customer Support advised running as Admin too. Guess what? Got a different error! Good advise too, Acorn!Quote:

Thanks

I will attach screen shot I sent them with the error code. And yes, Marie Sevcikova is the support person who signed the email.Attachment 124201Quote:

I'll send Marie a message on when she gets things like Access Violations come through.

Her next message, FYI, is for me to uninstall and reinstall Xara!
I don't mind doing that, but what all is your take on this?
Meaning on what to do when she gets a document that produces an access violation.Quote:

In the meantime I would probably suggest recreating your NavBar to fix the issue.
Thanks
