Serious UI Failure in OpenDCL Studio - 'Options' and 'New Project' Menus are Missing

[duke]

Hello everyone, I'm new to OpenDCL and I'm having a very strange issue with my installation. The OpenDCL Studio interface is not displaying correctly, which is preventing me from getting started. **The Problem:** Key menu items are completely missing. 1. In the "Tools" menu, the "Options..." item is missing. 2. In the "File > New" menu, the "Project" option is missing, so I cannot create a new project. **My System Information:** - Operating System: Windows 11 - AutoCAD Version: AutoCAD 2020 (English) - OpenDCL Version: 9.3.1.1 **What I've already tried without success:** - A complete uninstall/reinstall of OpenDCL. - Rebooting the PC. - Trying both the Spanish (ESM) and the main English installers. In all cases, the result is exactly the same. I have attached screenshots showing the missing menu items. Has anyone seen this fundamental issue before or have any ideas what might be causing this conflict on my system? I know this forum is for general LISP, but I'm hoping someone here might have run into this OpenDCL issue before. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

I do not see any screen shots.

 

Current Build [9.3.1.1]

(The current build is always under development. It is where we add new features for testing. It's usually very stable, but may contain a few bugs.)

 

Did you try the stable version? 

Stable Build [9.1.5.2]

(The stable build has all the known bugs worked out, but may not be as up-to-date as the current build.)

 

According to the response on the OpenDCL forum, those sub menus do not exist.  Serious UI Failure in OpenDCL Studio - 'Options' and 'New Project' Menus are Mis

 

As far as I can tell, AutoCAD 2021 was the first version for Windows 11, so there could be issues there.

Do you need to use OpenDCl  or can normal DCL be used ? Maybe explain what your trying to do in the DCL. There is some very smart DCL builders that post here.

Versión actual [9.3.1.1]

(La versión actual siempre está en desarrollo. Es donde agregamos nuevas características para probar. Por lo general, es muy estable, pero puede contener algunos errores ).

 

¿Probaste la versión estable? 

Versión estable [9.1.5.2]

(La versión estable tiene todos los errores conocidos solucionados, pero puede que no esté tan actualizada como la versión actual).

 

Según la respuesta en el foro de OpenDCL, esos submenús no existen.   Fallo grave de la interfaz de usuario en OpenDCL Studio: los menús "Opciones" y "Nuevo proyecto" están mal configurados.

 

Hasta donde sé, AutoCAD 2021 fue la primera versión para Windows 11, por lo que podría haber problemas allí.

¿Necesitas usar OpenDCl o puedes usar el DCL normal? Quizás podrías explicar qué intentas hacer en el DCL. Hay algunos constructores de DCL muy inteligentes que publican aquí.

Claro, aquí tienes la traducción. Te ofrezco dos versiones: una más directa y otra un poco más conversacional, ideal para un foro de ayuda.

Opción 1 (Traducción Directa)

I'm a beginner with DCL, so I may not be able to give a very clear explanation. An AI helped me download OpenDCL.

First, it helped me understand simple DCL (without a separate program), but I would like a more flexible way to manage a dialog box or window to my liking—to place it wherever I want on the screen. Simple DCL only allows it to be positioned in the center of the current window.

But when I try to use OpenDCL, it appears as shown in the screenshots. According to the AI, it is supposed to look different, and for that reason, it can't help me learn how to create windows with it.

Thanks for any help you can provide.

Opción 2 (Versión más Conversacional para Foros)

Hello, I'm new to DCL, so please bear with me if my explanation isn't perfect. An AI assistant helped me download OpenDCL.

It first helped me understand basic DCL, but my goal is to have more control over dialog boxes, specifically to be able to place them anywhere I want on the screen. The standard DCL seems to lock the position to the center of the current window.

The problem is, when I try to use OpenDCL, it shows up in the way you see in the screenshots. The AI told me this isn't how it's supposed to look, and because of this issue, it can't guide me on how to learn to create windows.

Any help you could offer would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
