Default Re: Editing profile

Those buttons around the edge (toolbar) are clone type buttons on all tabs, except for the first tab. Here's how it works... If you have a button on one tab, you can have it on other tabs too, by adding a button and making it a clone of the first/original button. The benefits of clone buttons is that they remember the state of the original button, and can also be locked in the same position. So, if the original button is a button that has multiple images, like a toggle or hold button, all of the clones stay in sync with the current image and which macro (select or deselect).

So, on the Game tab, I have all of my original/source buttons, and on all of the other tabs I have clones of them. Get it?

To remove one of these toolbar buttons, it is best to delete the clones first, then the source button. Because if you delete the Source button first, then all of the Clones are pointing to a button that does not exist. I think that was the problem you were having.

Start on the last InfoH tab and delete the 4 Time buttons, then go to the next to last tab (Info3) and do the same. Then when you get to the Game tab, delete these original/souce buttons. Note: if you have problems, you may need to save the profile and reopen it before deleting the source buttons on the Game tab.

Let me know if this works. I should have put some code in the Toolkit to stop users from deleting source buttons if clones are pointing to them. Or maybe even warn the user that deleting a source button will then delete all of the clones as well. But I didn't do that. I'll add that to the to-do list.
