Patchbay Window Doesn't Appear When Switching Identities #366

Closed madranet closed 4 years ago

madranet commented 4 years ago

Mac OSX 10,14,4 Patchbay: Version 8.1.0 (8.1.0)

I've used the + on the Patchbay launch/config screen to add a new Identity.

Patchbay launches fine when I select to launch with the ssb (default) identity.

However if I select the newly created identity to launch with, I don't get an electron window at all [& no entry under Window menu]

Incidentally, in case it's relevant, the ssb (default) identity was setup using Patchwork before I decided to try out Patchbay. So only the 2nd identity was created using Patchbay.

I am having something similar, except that an identity from patchwork or anew identity never opens a window on my machine. My machine is Windows 10 version 1909 with updates. This is using patchbay-Windows-8.1.0.exe installer.

Kinda sad that, 2 weeks later, this pretty major usability issue hasn't even merited a response from anyone involved in the project. Looks like another one to file under "Abandonware"
