Strange problem
I'm working at a book with many hyperlinks. Actually I use ragtime 6,5 at home, tiger computer, and Ragtime 6,0,2 in another computer, panther os.
Yesterday I was working with 6,0,2.
Using the trick thomas told me to have header with current heading, I was compiling the spreadsheet component with "the number of page" function.
One of the page number gives me an error, like I forgot to noumn the header. I open the layout and jump to the chapter to see what was happening, and I found a really strange thing.
In a page I have the chapter (was a short one, less than a page). And in the next page I have again the same chapter. I thinked "oh, I make a copy and paste, strange", and begin to select one of those chapter to delete it. But when I begin to select the text in the first chapter, I see Ragtime was selecting the text in the next page too! There was two cursor blinking, one in the first page and another in the next page.
If i try to move the cursor down, when it goes out of the page, it jump again at the beginning of the page.
I was unable to copy only one of the "double chapter", so I made from finder a copy of the active file and I open the copy to copy-and-paste the original chapter, a bad idea cause Ragtime freeze when I tried to save, and I need to force the quit of the application and re-lauch it.
Reopening the file I lost the work I have done in spreadsheet, but the double chapter was still there. I select the text object and open the component of the first one and the second one, to be sure thay was related to the same component, and they was.
In the original text component there was only one chapter!
At the end of the game: I select the chapter using the text component (and not the layout), cut, and paste. This time all was working fine. I cross the finger and save and this time Ragtime saves.
I do not understand how this problems could be born. The text object in pages are flushing the text one in to the next one, so it is impossibile that I created two indipendent text object related to the same content. And the chapter is in the middle of the content, is not a indipendent one.
Anyone have got something similar in paste? There is something I have doe that I can not understand?
Thank you.
