Comment 1 David Konecny 2002-09-26 08:37:05 UTC 
Looks like Core issue?
Comment 2 Jesse Glick 2002-09-27 16:34:34 UTC 
I think this is duplicate, Jan/Radek do you remember of what?
Comment 3 Jan Pokorsky 2002-09-27 16:58:46 UTC 
Sorry, I see that for the first time.
Comment 4 Jesse Glick 2002-09-29 15:29:51 UTC 
Found it.

rhulme, if this happens to you repeatedly, workaround is simple:
delete your $userdir/system/Projects/$projectname/Windows/ directory.
This will lose any custom window positions you might have set up. Less
drastic is to delete just .../Windows/Components/Options*.settings
(untested).

verified, closed - it's duplicate.
