What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. clicking diylc.exe
2.
3.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
The process does not start... looks like the java is running... but program 
does not work.

Whenever possible, please attach the latest log file. It will
provide valuable information when trying to reproduce and locate the
problem. Log files can be found in the log directory under the main

The complete log is as follow (after more than 15 min waiting)

templates (images)... and everithing was well.... but after close the program 
and try to access it again, the processs don't work.. nothing happen after 
click (double) the dyilc.exe...

Thanx for your quick response!
Well.. I killed the java process each time, but still not working.
I've restarted, and also cleared the temporary files (by using the CCleaner), 
and never happend...

However... I tried this one: delete the old library were the diylc is placed.. 
and donwload it again... and this time it's working!
Also, I can open my layout without problem... However, and was expected, I lost 
all the templates that I created..

My guess is there are some problem when the templates.. about the site where 
they are placed, or something as it...
In fact, I can ensure that: after opened the layout, I saved it, and works 
fine. On the second test, I opened the same layout, added one picture, save the 
picture as template, and save the proyect: the result was the same error.. 
programm does not start and java app is running.............. (by the way... 
where are placed the user templates??????)

I'm attaching the layout in case you wants to check it. But as I said, thinking 
the problem is with the templates (at least with the pictures as templates). 
The reason because I used this pictures is because I don't know how can create 
some new components, and thougth that pictures may works.. and it's working... 
if I don't close the program! lol

I hope this may be usefull for your checking. Thanks a lot!

that's possible, I've never tried making templates out of images. Btw, 
templates are saved in config.xml file. If you delete manually the one that 
gives you problems it should start fine. I'll try to fix the underlying issue 
soon.
tnx for the info!

                      <int>-16777216</int>

(the pot20numbering.. is the picture I added for testing...)

I've replaced some files from the download to the program folder, and when I 
changed the mentioned .xml file the process works well...

Well.. I think I can't do it something else....... my knowledge not give more!

By the way.. there are another way to create components? (easy way?)

No easy way to create components, I'm afraid. Version 2 had that, but that 
caused some other problems, and during 5 years it has been existing one one or 
two components are contributed by other people, so I didn't bother. However, 
your jacks look awesome, do you mind if I add them as components?
cheers

it actually works, but super slow. That image would probably take 5-10 minutes 
to load because it's saved in very inefficient format. If you leave it for some 
time it will startup fine. I'll try to improve (but then all old image 
templates would have to be re-created in new format)
Cheers

Well... about the components.. You've made all this excelent application for 
free and asked to me if I have problem if you add this components? Man.. you 
are a great person! lol..
Of course.. you can add them as components, and also the 3DPT if you wants.. I 
have this objects as .gif...  so if you need them, or in another format, so 
tell me.. I'm glad to help you if I can...

About the start.. well.. you must have a good pc! because I'm waiting for more 
than 15 minutes.... (I tried with a new proyect, and only added 1 image as 
jack...and save it.... and still don't start...) lol
However.. don't worry... I think there are no too much people that 'break' the 
process as I'm... lol (while I'm writting, the program has started! more than 
15 minutes but.. don't worry about that)
I think will to create a .bat that replace the .xml by the original one.. I 
know that lost the templates.. but is not a big problem for me... When you have 
the new components I think don't need add more images as now.

Thank you very match! for your attention, and the program! Is great!
So... if you need something to create the components just tell me
