Leaving out icons problem...

[Anonymous MOS]

What would cause the 'Leave Out' command not to work?

Thanks,
Steve

I'm using WB3.1

Real .info icons.  Also, I'm using Scalos V1.2 and have it set as a Backdrop, if that matters.

Thanks, I've downloaded that and am going to check it out.  :-)

Already tried to snapshot, but alas, after I rebooted, they were back in the usual drawer.

Oh, icky.  It requires 3.5 or above.  I only have 3.1

I found out that it has something to do with the drawers being on my 'Work:' partition.  None of the drawers on it can be 'left out'...

The drawers in my 'System:' partition work fine.  They can all be 'left out'.

Baffled,
Steve :-?

Try it on a normal Workbench without Scalos.  If it still doesn't work then open a shell and type 'info'.  Check what status is shown for work:  Read/Write, Read Only, Unvalidated, Validating etc.  If it is Read/Write then type 'list work:.backdrop'.  Make sure the file has the r (read) w (write) and d (delete) bits set.

Yep, looks like everything checks out there.

Anything else to check?

Thanks,

Ahh...  I fixed it.  I just renamed the old .backdrop file so the system would create a new one, and now all my drawers can be 'left out'.

Thanks guys,
Steve
