The 'Flags' feature of MLO Windows desktop seems to be diabled for me... Why? and How can I fix it?

[Jonathan Stevens]

I've not really used Flags at all so far.

 

Yesterday I had a quick look at this feature... and I found that it seems not to be working.

 

Here's two of the most obvious 'symptoms':

 

> With the Flags column showing in my list...
- if I left-click on that column and nothing happens. I'm thinking I should be getting a choice of flags to assign?

- if I right click, I get a single option to "Clear flags". Irrelevant, because I can't apply them!

 

> When I choose Tools / Manage Flags... from the menu, I get a box, with two column headings: Flag Name & Task Assigned and a Close button. But nothing else. It's totally empty. Nothing in the two columns below the headings. And there's a grey area on the right (looks like it would be used for various controls or settings) but it's empty too.

 

I've looked in the help system, I've looked in Tools / Options to see if I should 'activate' anything... Not noticed anything to help me.

 

So, the usual situation; the usual questions: Am I missing anything? Have I misunderstood anything? Or, if this is a genuine quirk or bug, how can I fix it?

 

Thanks in advance for any help anyone can offer...

 

Regards

Jonathan

Your default flags seem to have disappeared. Right click in space in the Manage Flags dialog and choose New flag.
