  • Slyedit ctrl-k not working

    So, the solution was a mixed bag. It was the missing allowColorSelection=true but also I had to copy over the entire EXEC folder. It appears to be working now. Thank you!

    That shouldn't be missing. It's included in the SlyEdit.cfg that is currently in the Git repo in sbbs/ctrl. Also its default setting is true, so if it wasn't in your .cfg file, it should have been enabled by default.

    but also I had to copy over the entire EXEC
    folder.

    Aside from the SlyEdit*.js files in the exec directory, I'm not sure what else there would be required in order for color selection to work. If any of the required SlyEdit*.js files were missing, I'd have expected SlyEdit to abort running in the first place. Unless you had some older copies in your sbbs/mods directory perhaps..?

    It appears to be working now. Thank you!

    Good to hear it's working.

    That is why I was confused - I never modified the SlyEdit.cfg file. And I am betting you are correct that I may have had some older files or missing files. At one point it failed to launch, which brought me to copying the EXEC folder over.

    Thanks again!
