Yohanan Posted June 8, 2017 Share Posted June 8, 2017 Hi, Since the last update of Accordance, I am unable to open a new search tab, I have to go to the menu and open a New Workspace. I am on MacBook Retina 2016 Sierra 10.12.5. Thanks in advance for any clue. Yohanan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Allison Posted June 8, 2017 Share Posted June 8, 2017 Are you trying to use the keyboard shortcut "Cmd-N" to create a new search tab? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don Adams Posted June 9, 2017 Share Posted June 9, 2017 I have noticed a similar problem on my mid 2010 15" MBP. I am also using Sierra 10.12.5. When I try to use the File drop down menu or when I use "CMD-N" it will fail to create a new search tab. What I did to work around it was to uncheck "Hide tab area if only a single tab" in the workspace settings. Then when I click the "+" next to the tab it will work for me. I am using Accordance 12.0.6. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yohanan Posted June 10, 2017 Author Share Posted June 10, 2017 (edited) Are you trying to use the keyboard shortcut "Cmd-N" to create a new search tab? Hi, Thank you for the reaction. Both are not producing any result, either the keyboard or the menu command for a new search tab. And this is particular to the last version (12.0.6), for this is new to me.

Yohanan Posted June 10, 2017 Author Share Posted June 10, 2017 problem just solved by downloading the version 12.1.0 ! Thanks again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yohanan Posted June 14, 2017 Author Share Posted June 14, 2017 The problem seemed solved, but again this morning the New Tab function is unavailable. It would be good to find out wherefrom this is coming. Yohanan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yohanan Posted June 14, 2017 Author Share Posted June 14, 2017 I observe that clicking command-N the DCH analysis appears in the Instant detail window. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yohanan Posted June 14, 2017 Author Share Posted June 14, 2017 Instead there is the little sign plus : + at the left of the opened tab where I can add a search tab. Has this become the only way ? It is not bad, but limited. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don Adams Posted June 14, 2017 Share Posted June 14, 2017 I am experiencing the same issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yohanan Posted June 16, 2017 Author Share Posted June 16, 2017 Let's hope some solution will be offered by the team of Accordance. This is needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helen Brown Posted June 16, 2017 Share Posted June 16, 2017 I am on an older Mac OS, and command-N still opens a new default tab for me. However, the New Tab button on the Tool bar, the new Tab item in the File menu, and the + in the zone beside a tab all open a menu offering Recent Modules and all the Library contents. I cannot find a connection to command-N in any menu, but I know that Apple requires any key command to be in a menu as well. Perhaps this is causing the problem in the newer OS. In Preferences: Keybpard Shortcuts you can check and reset these shortcuts. There I see that under file Menu my New Search Tab is assigned to command-N, even though that command no longer appears on the File menu. Perhaps it should.

Yohanan Posted June 17, 2017 Author Share Posted June 17, 2017 I checked and no shortcut is selected in my keyboard settings (I try to have none except for the screen shot). Moreover, the NewTab menu in the main File menu, does not work anymore than the shortcut Command-N. The only one working is the sign + besides the opened tab. This is a problem, for I have very often to use the news tabs in my collation work for critical edition of the Tanakh. Hope something will be done.

Yohanan Posted June 17, 2017 Author Share Posted June 17, 2017 I also tried to add a Command-N shortcut for the Accordance app in my keyboard shortcuts, but this does not work either. Yohanan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yohanan Posted June 17, 2017 Author Share Posted June 17, 2017 and from within the preferences of Accordance, I also tried a reset of all shortcuts, in vain. Though presently Command-N is presented as assigned to New Search Tab. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yohanan Posted June 17, 2017 Author Share Posted June 17, 2017 the only fact that the Dictionary appears in the Instant Detail window when clicking on Command-N seems to indicate that there is some bug somewhere. This has come with the last version of Accordance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yohanan Posted June 17, 2017 Author Share Posted June 17, 2017 (edited) I also tried to define a new shortcut for this function in Accordance, doesn't work. Edited June 17, 2017 by Yohanan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fabian Posted June 17, 2017 Share Posted June 17, 2017 This sounds like the bugs which we had on the German UI after upgrading to Sierra last fall. Then also some shortcut-keys didn't worked. Greetings Fabian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yohanan Posted June 17, 2017 Author Share Posted June 17, 2017 Thanks, I fear your moto is significant of what the use of abbreviations in modern American language (spreading around the world) is aiming at: to kill the language, if not the speech acts. Anyway, I doubt there exists anything accessible to us like a "dead language". As soon as you can read a language and know it, it is a living language and it is read by a community. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Λύχνις Δαν Posted June 17, 2017 Share Posted June 17, 2017 (edited) I'm not sure if just reading alone is enough for full revivification. I suspect speaking and writing, that is new composition, and with them the opportunity for development, novel use, of the language are likely also required. I don't know - interesting question though. Of course there is the issue also that Greek and Hebrew still exist as living langs, just not in the form we tend to study here.
