[scilab-Users] Scilab 5.2 + xcos: Bug when dragging / moving parts

[Crypto]

Yes it happens indeed with all blocks, be it an icon block or a label block. I 
have checked that with different blocks, including SUM_F and CONST_m.

The very first block, if a new simulation file is opened ("unknown" file), can 
always be placed on the layout of the new simulation file and it is displayed 
there, as it should, but the second block cannot - the second block can be 
dragged to the new simulation file, but it is not displayed (it is there, as I 
wrote in my first posting, but not displayed. Once the view is resized - zoomed 
in or out etc. - all blocks are displayed again).

When I move/drag around a block that is placed on the "unknown" new simulation 
file, it disappears when I release the mouse button. This happens even if only 
one block is on that simulation file. Again, the block is not gone, but the new 
position of the block is not displayed properly. Instead, it is drawn at its 
old position.

Further to the Istanbul problem: I keep trying to fix it, though at the moment 
I do not know how. Istanbul runs like You described (places red filled circle 
in kicker bar), but after hitting the icon with left mouse button it changes 
shape to grey square and nothing else happens.

Regards,
Crypto.
