Unable to change window properties after upgrading project from X5 to RH8

Hi,

I just upgraded an existing project from X5 to RH8.  In Windows Properties (HTML Help), if I make any changes and click OK, I receive the following message:

"For Width field please enter a value between 65 and 24."

If I do enter a value within those parameters in any of the "Width" options on the Properties page, I'm still presented with the same error message. 

How can this be corrected?

Thanks!

Hi there

Perhaps try creating a totally new window definition and configuring the parameters as desired.

Once in a blue moon we see that the window definition somehow becomes corrupt.

Cheers... Rick

I created a new window but now the left placement value is imposing a limitation parameter.  I am entering identical values to my window in the old X5 version of the project...all settings are identical.  Any reason why this would be happening?

I finally got it to work.  However, if I go in to edit ANY of the settings, it prompts me to make the necessary adjustments to the placement values and I have to cancel out of my edit.  This has to be a bug in the software.
