I've used Machscreen a couple of times, and have been very happy witht eh improvements over previous editors. But sadly I am having to go back to Mach3Screen at the moment because there are no garantees that the .set files are readable. I've used machscreen to develop a screen set for a piece of lab equipment we're using, and have been saving versions along the way. Just recently I have made some mods to the layout and code and then saved a new version. The mods were to add some additional DROs to the screen. No code or anything.
This version crashes Mach when I load it, starting with an error message saying 'An attempt was made to access an unnamed file past its end', and then when Mach is closed there is a message box sitting behind, showing ' Error found, Art Code 9991, Attempt Recovery? with yes/no buttons. Yes doesn't clear it, and no leads to the MS erorr mesasge about closign due to a problem.
The file cannot be opend in Screen4 'Unexpected file format' or mach3screen 'Unexpected file format' and MS error message.
It also cannot be opened in machscreen, showing 'unexpected end of file'.
I'd welcome your comments about what i'm doing wrong ?
The file attached is an .sset file which has been renamed to .set temporarily so that it can be attached, but the effect is the same if the file is saved as .set or .lset from machscreen.
