It is possible that my project got corrupted

Hi guys,

I already asked this question to Peter, as my login into the forum would not work, so please Peter, accept my apologies for that.

When I open a topic, the font box is toggling between TimesNewRoman and Verdana, making very difficult for me to choose the font.

Also, when I try to update a picture in a topic, the new picture does not update in the topic, though in the preview I saw the new picture.

Also, just 5 minutes ago, I tried to change something minor in the topic as the font for the entire topic changed just because I deleted one character. Therefore I think that the project is in a pretty bad shape...

I am using a shared domain where I have shared pictures and topics between 2 projects.

I think I received long time ago a quick fix about how to repair a corrupted project, however I do not know if it would apply in the present situation.

Thank you in advance

Correct answer

Anywhere I can download it is fine.


The solution Peter suggested me is:

  1. Create a copy of the project.
  2. Open Rh and then click File > Open.
  3. Browse to the project folder.
  4. Open the project with the HHP file.
  5. You will be prompted to use the XPJ file. Click No.

I applied this, and the flickering disappeared.

Thank you Peter

No worries re direct approach, just wasn't around to see it before.

Was the trick as simple as deleting the CPD file and then reopening the project?

Thank you Peter.

At least the toggling disappeared.

I hope that the project's "behaviour" will settle as well with that.
