jEdit windows appear blank
Submitted by Anonymous on Tuesday, 21 September, 2004 - 18:09
After I started jEdit the first time it appeared to have hung. All windows were blank - but then I noticed that my hard disk activity led was flsahing - Java seems to be very slow on my computer.

Nothing (much) wrong with that, but then I went and changed jEdit Appearance to something else than the default (can't remember what), did a restart of the program as instructed, but now all other windows remain blank (a sort of a light gray color) no matter how long I wait.

I suspect this is because of the Appearance. Where can I cahnge it back, since the Global Options dialog isn't showing correctly either?

Never mind

(I can't believe that I made those typos! Sticky fingers, I guess)

Never mind this, problem solved.

As I'm running WindowFX (adding a nice decorative touch to my desktop: drop shadows), it seems to interfere with jEdit. So I used the good old CTRL-trick (if you have been using Stardock software, you'll know what I mean). The Windows Appearance doesn't seem to conflict in any way, so I'll stick to that!
