Hello,

I'm using A37/64 bit on Linux Ubuntu (64bit)

In addition to the lack of ability to navigate the user screens via the arrow buttons, I am also unable to bring up the menu options by pressing the \ key. This is causing a problem with adding and deleting users. I have backed up
and deleted the users.dat file from the data directory and created a new one that does not seem to help with the issue. Please help.

Thanks,

Robert

I erroneously posted that I was using A37 instead of A38.

It's usually the / key from memory and have you tried the page up/down keys
on the user screen Robert?

Best, Paul

Had this problem a few days ago, and someone suggested using 'page up' ;page down' to scroll through. It worked for me.

If you look on the screen the key is / to bring up the menu, not /

Also the editors are being redone in many places. If you want to move down a page, using the page down button. If you want to move up a page, use the
page up button.

Paul,

Yes, I have tried both directions of the slash key and neither seems to work. The page up/page down keys do however work, but that does not allow me to add users without logging in and manually creating them that way. Fortunately,
the page up/page down sequence have allowed me to get done what I needed to do.

Thanks,

Robert

Got it. Thanks. :-)

I think the confusion is there is no / menu in the user editor.

Aha... I think we are on to something. LOL Thank you for that. I just thought it should be there since most of the other menus have one.
