Documentation Bug
« on: June 17, 2017, 01:00:54 PM »
I had an error show up while editing the documentation in an offline DMD project. I had a single temporary location (V100) that had been automatically been added to the documentation database. I had then used the Replace function in the Ladder view to replace it with the permanent variable that I wanted to use. I had then right-clicked V100 in the documentation editor, and then clicked Clean Documentation Database. In the popup, I clicked the Refresh References. I then got a modal popup with a title of: "DmDesigner", and the text: "Encountered an improper argument". If I click either the OK button or the X I just get a ding, and it comes back. I cannot dismiss without forcing DMD to shutdown.

Definitely a bug.  "Encountered an improper argument" is reported by the Microsoft MFC DLL when you pass something "improper"  ;D.

Hopefully, we can duplicate it and fix it easily.

I did not have time to fiddle with duping right now, but I can try later if I can remember.  :)

I made several attempts to dupe the error, and was not successful...
If I can get it to happen again, then I will let you know.
