all options grayed out #3

Arch user, I'm booting a UEFI system using grub 2.02.beta2-6 and a version of this compiled today, but all options are grayed out. Not sure how to get log output for this, I tried running kcmshell5 grub2 but all that returns is "false"

No other boot managers set in EFI.

Are you trying to run with root priviledge? I've just fixed a problem with root user, try again.

no, running as a regular user tried the latest build, same issue http://i.imgur.com/KVRj06k.png

Where is your grub.cfg and grubenv? By default gurb2-editor reads these two files from /boot/grub2 . UEFI is probably using a different path for grub configurations, use
cmake -DGRUB_MENU="/path/to/grub.cfg" -DGRUB_ENV="/path/to/grubenv" to define the path of grub.cfg and grubenv

Currently I don't have a UEFI environment to test it out. It would be good if anyone forks the project and makes it compatible with UEFI.

I have it in /boot/grub, but I pointed it towards that already. I have another UEFI system where it works fine, which is what's baffling me.

Should be fixed now.
