Thats not normal, i suggest you reinstall your office and update it to the newest level. I tested your upgraded version and it looks all good here. No problems with it. So i cant reproduce your reported behavior.
Perhaps, you can send me your whole TCE folder.

Eventure - It's office 365 (Office 2013) and is fully up to date, just checked that one. I'll try sending you the whole folder now via same link as before on PM

Interesting discovery. I'm on a 4k monitor, and it works fine even on my own databse if I take the resolution down to 1920x1080 or similar, but once on 3840x2160, the black screen and freezing returns...
 
Hi Evenure. I have decided to make a clean start which I will probably do when 1.3 comes out and with that in mind I have just done a clean install of the TCE and was looking in the Databases. I have found in Stations_UR at least one duplicate station ID # 6019 and 6020 and I have a couple of questions that I hope you answer for me;
1. Assuming this is a clean install and no data has been entered - is it okay to just delete an entry in the Stations_UR database and then re-number the ID list;
2. Is it possible to delete all stations in the database and enter them as I find them using the Overlay?

1. There is no need in re-numbering of the unregistered stations. It is only important for the registered stations and their prices.
2. Yes, you can delete all unregistered stations from the table Stations_UR, but not the table itself.

Because i didnt own a 4k monitor, i am not a great help in your case, perhaps other users can help you with the issue, you having. Please change your UI to Compact Mode and test, if it is the same.

It gets further under Compact mode - I get the Commander Profile to appear, and will let me edit and save. But as soon as click on one of the other tabs, black screen and sporadic freezing. It's like there's something in the code that is scaling dependent?

Does anyone else have 4k set up and got 1.40 working?

Another idea, please open the Panel Control Window and play with it a little (change x/y/z, show/hide the Personal Logbook). If the window is blocked by the black screen, ALT-TAB back to it.

Eventure - further testing shows that it's when you click onto another tab it shows a black screen - I had to Task Manager kill the last test, on opening TCE next time it went straight to Travel Summary. When I then clicked back to Commanders Profile, black screen. So I think it is something in the code in v1.40 when switching between panels or sub-panels, that on a 4k screen it doesn't work.

This all works fine to display one or more panels at a time. So does appear to be something with the hiding and opening normally as per above comment. Curiously, Position/Destination when clicked show in Panels, opens up a duplicate mini panel to the Main Menu elements - is that right or could it be linked?

So, the first visit works, but every click after opening at a different area results in a black screen, right?
E.g. If you dont open the log, but the cartography, it work, closing the cartography and then opening the log thereafter results in a black screen?

No, its from the Compact UI. i have to disable it in case of Show/Hide, if the Compact UI is not in use.

I release an update today, that fixes some other issues. I will add some code for changing the areas of the Logbook, that could perhaps help. You have to test it then.

Yes, exactly. Very strange.

Changelog:
- Fixed issue with saving notes in Cartography panel, if no star class selected.
- Fixed wrong date displays.
- Added alternate panel display mode (selectable at the Options panel) for users having issues with panel dimensions.

Eventure,

You my friend, are clearly an Excel, Access, VBA utter genius!! I can confirm v1.41 Beta 2 working perfectly with the alternate panel display mode under 4k at full resolution, in Elite 1.3 Powerplay.

I am sincerely very grateful, a top up donation is winging your way, very much appreciate your hard work fixing this problem for me.

Well, i am happy to help you, i guessed, the dimensions of the panels was the troublemaker. If i dont hear any reports of issues from other users with it, the alternate will be the new standard.

Thanks for your continuous support!

Problem is suddenly back :-( Seems to be as it's not remembering the options setting and suddenly loses it so bug reoccurs...
 
Eventure

Also now seem to be getting soft freezes, with message:

Error in Logbook_Set
Error Line: 10
Error: (13) Type mismatch

Clicking ok springs everything back into life

The option is not saved atm, only for the session. I added it as a test. As i said, it will be the next standard, if none reporting issues with it. So please select it after starting.

Afternoon Eventure just downloaded the latest 1.41 Beta 2 and I am running into more than a few errors I'll start with this one I get it when after a scan of the commodities I try and save the data.

ERROR AFTER SELECTING SAVE

Will post more errors as they happpen

Both errors have to do with the date fix. Damn, worked here, but i will further optimize it. Next update will probably work for all.

Update (V1.41 Beta 3) released:





Changelog:
- Added new ship type "Diamondback Scout" (Powerplay).
- Changed ship type "Diamondback" to "Diamondback Explorer" at the personal.mdb (Powerplay).
- Fixed issue with date calculation.

I am not sure if BETA 3 was suppose to fix my problem, but it didn't still errors as before when I hit the save button after scanning commodities.
 
With 1.41 Beta 3 can't save updated commodities

When updating commodities with ocr everything fine till I push the save button. Then TCE crashes with Run-time error '13': Type mismatch. Tested in 2 stations.

Panel_Prices (Code), (BTN_Save, Click) StationData(8) = DateAdd("yyyy", 1286, Format(LocalTimeToUTC(Now), "DD.MM.YYYY"))

Also noticed new Salvage Item - SAP 8 CORE CONTAINER. Added it through Database Wares. The next time I started a scan TCE crashed on first scan page. Didn't capture error. Restarted TCE. This time no crashes on scan but did crash on save again with above error.
