Are you switching back and forth between different versions of CB?No, but I am running multiple Instances in parallel. They are all the same versions.
If so, you need to use the '--personality=' parm so each does not overwrite the others key definition settings.I think you mean as startup parameter. Would that lead to multiple config versions?
Using mulltiple CB's with the same default startup parameters means each starts up with --personality=default. Thus, when closing CB each will overwrite the others .conf file.Currently all run with "default" indeed. Thanks for the suggestion, I will try that.
Try running the other CBs with a '--personality=<ChooseSomeUniqueName>' and see if it solves your problem.
Remember to allow CB to write to it's .conf files or it won't save your changes when you close a running CB.The idea was exactly that (I rarely change the config), but it seems for keyboard short cuts, the read only config file was also ignored for reading on startup. I did not expect that.
codeblocks --personality=test1
Could you not simply:
1) Start one CB instance
2) Fix your shortkeys
3) Save all, and close CB
4) Open as many instances you like
5) If you change some key bindings you have to do it in one single instance
I know this is somehow not "userfriendly" (and it bugs me a lot, because it happens to me every fu*** time) but i frankly do not know how other applications handle this (or how it should be handled). Here the last closed instance overwrites the previous settings and this is somehow logic....
1) Are all running CBs the same CB version ?yes. There is only 1 installations
2) Do all your running CBs run the same plugins. ?yes.
3) Is the menu system exactly the same on all running CB's ?yes, I did not change the menu
I too have experienced missing keys after a CB crash, but have never been able to figure out what's happening.Thanks for confirming. Are you aware of any shortcut key storage beside "<CBconfig>/default.cbKeyBinder20.conf"?
