Description arungupta 2008-03-10 23:59:18 UTC

I downloaded & installed NB 6.1 beta and it automatically imported settings from 6.0.1. The first step I tried was
visiting Plugin UC and the Available plugin tab is shown disabled (as shown in the attached image). Hitting "Reload
Catalog" resolved that problem.

This needs to be fixed. The log files of a fresh IDE install & start will be attached as well.

Jirka, any reasons why the tab is disabled by default ? Thanks in advance.

Comment 5 Jaromir Uhrik 2008-03-11 11:25:29 UTC

Marian, it is misleading information that the "tab is disabled by default". The tab is disabled only in case that the
plugin manager is invoked before the model is created. This is not usual to open plugin manager right after the ide
start and the workaround can be either pressing Reload Catalog or closing+reopening plugin manager. The correct priority
should be P3. I am decreasing the priority.
