Re: Out Of Memory softlock

Update: I am using ver. 4.3. I think I got an early release of it. Anyway. The softlock doesn't happen as often, but it has happened twice. One time was 'normal' for me, the softlock happened after my fingers returned to old habits; I highlighted text and pressed the delete button. I know better but...

Re: Out Of Memory softlock

1. Yes, there are many ways to work with highlighted text. Many of these seem to be related to the softlocks I experience with AWP. If I change text from ALL CAPS to lowercase using keyboard shortcuts (I think it is Ctrl-Shift-F3? My fingers know the shortcut better than my brain), I get the softlo...

Re: Out Of Memory softlock

It happened again. I'm not certain that I did as you said because when I went to rename my Atlantis folder (to regain use of the spell-checker, for example), I found another Atlantis folder. I thought I'd changed the folder name after the update but apparently not. The new Atlantis folder has 3 fold...

Re: Out Of Memory softlock

Update. I did the things suggested here. Status: 1. I ruled out the idea that the bug is associated with the Ctrl key. It happens more quickly when I use those shortcuts but it eventually happens even when I use my mouse exclusively and avoid keyboard shortcuts. The bug seems to be associated with a...

Re: Out Of Memory softlock

Update. I tried life without the Ctrl key, thinking that it might be a hardware problem or a bug associated with using that key. No. Got the error message and lock again; this time with 1526 Mb listed as the allocated memory. I used mouse commands to cut and paste or to bold/unbold and used the Cont...

Re: Out Of Memory softlock

I loaded the program. It showed 14 Mb when it softlocked and showed the error message, Out of Memory. Highlighting text to manipulate it (in this case to bold the text but it happens with cut-and-paste also) seems to be a high-risk activity. It doesn't usually result in softlock but I've noticed tha...

Re: New Find/Replace box

I didn’t have this problem until I loaded the newest version of AWP.

Re: Out Of Memory softlock

Hi. Did that. Still getting the softlock sometimes with the error message sometimes not. Can I download a previous version of AWP to see if the trouble is with my computer or with this version? Can I load a debug version?

Re: Mouse wheel too slow or too fast

I no longer have this problem. I did as advised and it fixed the troubles. However I probably could use the debug version because now I get softlock with an error message “Out of Memory,” and the steps advised have not fixed the problem.

Out Of Memory softlock

Ver. 4.2.1.1; since installing the latest version of AWP, I occasionally get an error box popup, “Out of memory.” It locks the program. I lose any work not saved or autosaved. Rebooting the computer removes the problem but it recurs, seemingly at random. Today it happened when I only had 3 files ope...

Comment/Uncomment

Is there a way to include notes in a mass of text that won't print? Margin notes? Editorial marks? When programming I can include text between [comment] and [uncomment] and the program ignores it. Does AWP have a similar feature? I considered using white font on a white background but that shows up ...

Mouse wheel too slow or too fast

I have Windows 10 and a Logitech trackball with wheel. It works fine with my other laptop on AWP -- that laptop is also Windows 10. However, in Atlantis on my new computer, the trackball wheel scrolls down or up at a glacial pace. I adjusted the line per click in Windows Settings. This doesn't chang...

Re: New Find/Replace box

Thank you. My first thought was a keylogger, too. But, why would a keylogger send data to Google? Sophos found no malware but that doesn't mean my computer is not infected.

How does the autocomplete work in AWP? (without giving up secrets)

I am not computer savvy and probably used the wrong term. What I call a memory cache is probably something else. I know that text that I change can be undone. This means the running document is saved in memory someplace. What is the term for that place? Thank you for your quick reply.

Data Mining?

It could be coincidence but it happens consistently. A few hours after I write into Atlantis, keywords from my text appear in Google News and in ads on my phone, which is not tied to my computer (I have a Windows computer and an iPhone). The keywords that surprise me are items I have not previously ...

It was reproducible, at will. I uninstalled AWP and reinstalled it. The problem remained, except that I no longer got the awp error message. My guess is that I no longer had a full backup folder. Didn’t get those messages, either. Um, yes. Status bar. I mailed my computer in to get the keyboard fixe...
