Not Able to Manipulate Bookmarks
Of late I have experienced a problem. I'm not sure which upgrade saw the problem begin. Using 11.52 now. I've been putting off documenting it for one reason or another ... Nevertheless the problems concerns bookmarks.I cannot consistently CUT bookmarks from within the bookmarks panel by either Ctr+X or Right Clicking and choosing CUT (bookmark remains in place).
I cannot consistently DELETE bookmarks in the panel by either highlighting the bookmark and hitting "Delete' key or Right Click and choose 'Delete' (bookmark remains in place).
I can COPY a bookmark and PASTE it reliably into a new folder. I can CUT a bookmark and PASTE it reliably into a new folder but the bookmark is not removed from the CUT location.
Behavior is same when I switch to work from within the Manage Bookmarks window.
Now, the weird thing is that SOMETIMES CUT or DELETE will work. Probably about 20% of the attempts. Sometimes if I can drag a bookmark around within the tree and drop it in a new spot the entire upper portion of the split bookmarks window seems to redraw itself and then I can CUT or DELETE. But if no redraw, then no success.
Have I damaged the bookmarks file somehow? Can I repair it? Do I have too many bookmarks? Or is the problem with the program?
Something is not right and I sure hope to find a solution so I can reliably manipulate bookmarks again. I surely appreciate any comments. Thanks.
