Xathros Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 Hi Michel- Can you tell me how the choice of Admin console Theme is stored on the MAC? I set mine to "Desert" and it remembers it for a day or two but then reverts back to the default blue theme. I'm sure I am doing something to make it forget, just don't know what that something is... Thanks. -Xathros Link to comment
Michel Kohanim Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 Hi Xathros, It's stored in Java temp directory. So, if you clear Java cache or your system clears the temp, it goes away. With kind regards, Michel Link to comment

Michel Kohanim Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 Hi Xathros, Are you saying that every time you restart MAC, it clears the temp Java memory. If that's the case, we have to think of a better solution. With kind regards, Michel Link to comment

If that's the case, we have to think of a better solution. With kind regards, Michel Michel- Every time I restart (3 systems running OS X 10.8.2 / Java 1.7.11), I lose the theme setting. Not sure if the Java temp is different than the Java cache. I am NOT clearing the cache unless doing a FW upgrade. I have been through all of the Java settings and see nothing that would clear the temp at restart. I can't say for but I think I've seen the same on a OS X 10.7 / Java 1.7.11 system. This is not a major problem - just an annoyance. Happy to help with any testing if you need. -Xathros Link to comment
Michel Kohanim Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 Hi Xathros, Definitely not normal. We'll take a look and let you know. With kind regards, Michel Link to comment
Xathros Posted January 29, 2013 Author Share Posted January 29, 2013 Michel- Thanks. -Xath Link to comment
Michel Kohanim Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 Hi Xathros, Just verified that we do indeed keep everything in Java's temp folder. Are you sure you have Keep temporary files enabled for your Java? We also discussed storing in ISY but soon realized that it would then make the theme dependent on the last person who changed it regardless of the computer. With kind regards, Michel Link to comment

With kind regards, Michel Hi Michel- I believe I do but maybe I missed something. I will double check. I like the idea of storing the setting in the ISY myself. I can't speak for others but I know that I am the only one that logs into my admin console. I wonder how many MultiUser ISY installs there are out there. Maybe when the ISY gets multiple username logins with unique permissions, storing the theme in the ISY will make more sense but I don't really see that as being a big stumbling point right now either. Here are my Java Settings: https://www.dropbox.com/s/gp6yn4oswp5xyl2/Java_Temp_Settings.jpg Sorry - the board attachment limit thing is still an issue. Is that a per user setting or global across the board? -Xathros Link to comment
Michel Kohanim Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 Hi Xathros, Thank you. I agree with multi-user idea. I also think we should store it in ISY because Admin Console is useless without ISY. I just cannot understand why your files are being removed. Does it happen every time you restart the Admin Console? or every day? With kind regards, Michel Link to comment
Xathros Posted January 31, 2013 Author Share Posted January 31, 2013 Michel- After every restart. If I just sleep the system and resume the next day, the setting remains just fine. -Xath Link to comment
Michel Kohanim Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 Hi Xathros, thank you. Just to be clear, you are referring to a complete reboot of the computer, correct? With kind regards, Michel Link to comment
Xathros Posted February 1, 2013 Author Share Posted February 1, 2013 Michel- A full shutdown then startup or a simple restart - either way same result. -Xath Link to comment
