Android Question Problem working on project done with older B4A Version

[walterf25]

Hi Erel, i'm having a weird issue, it may very well be something i'm doing wrong, but wanted to report it anyway. I made an app for a client with an Older Version of B4A, can't remember what version exactly, but he needs some changes made, and i'am now using the latest B4A version, when I open the project all the Other modules are not being loaded physically, it seems like they are being loaded in memory since the application gets compiled OK, the problem is that I need to make some changes on a few of the other modules but since they don't get loaded on the IDE i can't make those changes. I tried using Notepad to make the changes but it becomes very inconvenient, when i run the app again, i get a warning message saying the module has been externally edited, and Do I want to OverWrite, "yes", No", If I click yes then it deletes all the changes i've made, If i click no the changes remain, but I don't see the changes done in the app.

Can you suggest a fix for this?

Thanks,
Walter

Problem solved, I open the Meta file, and the only module that was set to visible was number 1, I added the rest of them, and re-opened the app again, and all the modules loaded up now, is this a Bug?

Thanks,
Walter

Are you sure that the modules were not hidden? Have you tried to click on them in the modules list?

I helped Walter with this, he said they didn't open so I guess he just looked if the source tabs where there.

I suggested to check those visible parameters and add them with value 1 if they were missing.

Didn't think about checking that modules tab either, I never have it open to be honnest only the files or libs when needed.

You can just click them there in the modules tab and they are back, good hint there Erel

Yeah i didn't think of it either, but it had me chasing my tail for a while.
