Big problem since upgrade Windows 10
Posted: Tue Jan 28, 2020 8:55 pm
WYSIWYG 15.2.2 - 32 bit
This is difficult to describe, but I hope it is understandable.
I have recently upgraded to Win. 10 from Win. 7 but not yet finalized the installation because not sure about it's problems and I don't trust it.
The problem: This goes for both a new page or an existng one where the page has a set width. When I place anything (layout grid, flex container, card container, image, text, pre-built block or anything), the width of the page resets itself in a seemingly arbitary way (say from 900 to 1386 or whatever). If I place text or a layer onto a page and drag it it the edge of the page (which has a pre-set width), I can drag it infinitely as it just keeps making the page wider and wider, rather than staying in the confines of the pre-set page width.
If I hit CTR+Z (Undo) the page sometimes resets to the correct original width, but not every time and that's not dependable. If I set the max. grid width to any number, even if it's a negative number, it doesn't matter when I place objects into it. It just keeps getting wider and makes the page wider, rather than stacking in a fluid way.
I have uninstalled the WYS program from a fresh download several times, but still does this.
I had this problem with WYS 15.2.3 and brought it back to 15.2.2, in the hope that it would behave, but it did not.
So now, here's the question: is this always the way with Win. 10 or is just because I have not finalized the Win. 10 installation? I don't really dare to because I won't be able to go back to my Win. 7 if I do and I will have a useless computer with no way back.
By the way, all of my other programs work fine with Win. 10, all of which are older than WYS (many much, much older). And, yes, I ran the compatability utility.
What am I missing? Any hints would be appreciated.
