Java heap monitor not always visible

[drewg]

Hi,

I'm running 7.0.19 on linux via an HD300 with malore menus, Fuzzy's_Malore_Tweaks, Malore_SeasonEpisode and Phoenix Fanart for Malore Menus.

I've noticed that the java heap monitor does not display on the screen unless it has "something else" next to it to hang off of. For example, while the "REC" icon is on the screen, the heap monitor is visible. But when the "REC" icon goes away, so does the heap monitor. It seems to always work using the linux placeshifter client, but I think that's because the little moon and maximize/un-maximize icons are there, so there is something for the monitor to "hang off of".

Is this a known bug, or am I just lucky?

Thanks,

Drew

Drew,

That's a known bug. I've just been too lazy to fix it.

That sounds like a bug too.

Drew,

I just looked at the code and this bug was fixed (I thought) in the current version. Does it behave the same if it is the only plugin?

Sorry to take so long -- I had recordings in progress last night, so I did the test early this morning before work. What I did was:

- remove all UI Mods except JHM
- reload UI
At this point, the JHM appeared.
- re-install all UI Mods, reloading UI for each.

The idea was to find the plugin that clobbered JHM. But none of them did! Eg, I have the same set of plugins installed as before, but now JHM is working. I did not update JHM (was already at latest).

Maybe it is either a very transient bug, or it has something to do with the order that the UI mods are loaded..

Pin it next to the CPU monitor Nice ports from neilm's motherboard info.

Update -- I'm an idiot. I realized that when I was re-installing my plugins, I forgot the CVF (custom video folder) plugin. When I installed that, the JHM disappeared. When I disabled CVF, JHM re-appeared. So I think CVF is the problem..

Thanks, is there a secret handshake? Err.. well, nevermind, I'd probably forget it.

Any way to figure out the CVF / JHM conflict?

Drew,

I can see where/why the conflict is happening and I'll see what can be done to avoid it.

Thanks! And sorry again it took me so long to find the offending plugin. I only realized I'd forgotten to reinstall it when I went to watch some imported TV series, and they didn't have episode numbers..
