Images no longer visible (UltraRecall professional)

MsJulie · #1 08-14-2006, 08:15 AM

Greetings!

Images that I cut and paste do not show up in the text notes entries in UltraRecall -- the professional version. They are not visible whatsoever, even though the "paste" option is available when I right-click in the text field.

For example, if I select an image on a webpage and then right click it and copy it then go to the text field of a text and note in UltraRecall, I can't select paste -- but having selected it it does not register in the window.

Moreover, images that I had cut and pasted in version 1.0 are not visible either.

In the spirit of experimentation, I created a notepad file with an image that had been cut and pasted. Then I dragged that file into the data Explorer -- it created a shortcut link to a Word file (RTF). When I opened that item in the data Explorer -- the image did not appear, either. And it did not appear to be incorporated whatsoever in the copy that UltraRecall kept.

What is going on? I did not mess with the settings when I upgraded.

Please advise.

Virtually yours,
Ms.Julie

v2 added an option during installation to copy the Office rich edit control to the UR installation path if available (since some versions improve table display: http://www.kinook.com/Forum/showthre...?threadid=1026). But it appears that some versions of riched20.dll are buggy, resulting in the behavior you describe. Close UR and try one of the following:

1) Delete riched20.dll from the UR installation path
2) Replace it with the one in this file: ftp://ftp.kinook.com/RICHED20.zip

Many thanks!

Both of your methods worked -- either removing the DLL entirely or replacing it with the non-buggy version.

Just out of curiosity, what are the trade-offs between having the DLL in the boot path and leaving it out?

Cheers!

If you want UR to use a different version than the system one, place the desired version in the UR path. Some users have found this to be beneficial:
