1. Quit LC 2. Delete files: /Users/<username>/Library/Preferences/RunRev/livecode.rev /Users/<username>/Library/Preferences/RunRev/livecode7.rev 3. Open LC I hope this fixes the problem :) Kind regards, Panos -- On Wed, 14 Oct 2020 at 01:10, David Bovill via use-livecode < use-livecode@lists.runrev.com> wrote: > Does anyone else have this behaviour in MacOs?
