Backtrace

simendsjo commented 8 years ago

Is there any logging I can add to give an error message? The menu never opens, so it's very easy to reproduce for me :)

StreakyCobra commented 8 years ago

Does M-m open it? Does keybinding work even if the menu doesn't show up? (you can try to check for SPC b h going to the *spacemacs* buffer and SPC b s going to the *scratch* buffer)

simendsjo commented 8 years ago

I can check M-m tomorrow, but I suspect it's working. All keybindings seems to work, and SPC b b still opens the buffer meny. It's just the SPC menus (before a "final" menu appears) that doesn't seem to work.

simendsjo commented 8 years ago

M-m doesn't open any menu either.

StreakyCobra commented 8 years ago

What's the value of which-key-mode (SPC h d v which-key-mode)? If it is nil, can you try turning it on with M-x which-key-mode and try to reproduce?

simendsjo commented 8 years ago

It was nil. Turning it on works! Not sure how I can turn it on always though.. Tried adding (setq which-key-mode t) in the config, but it's still nil after restarting.

StreakyCobra commented 8 years ago

It should be on by default, there is something that disable it in your config.

syl20bnr commented 8 years ago

To turn it on prefer to call the function instead of setting the variable:

(which-key-mode)

Alternatively you can use the spacemacs toggle which is bound under SPC t

Nobody has been able to reproduce this, so I'm closing for now.

LeaveNhA commented 2 years ago

I have this issue now, I was using it without opening the menu but I needed it 2 min ago. It's not opening at all. How can I debug the process?
