[TRNSYS-users] Type534 storage tank plugin with Windows 7

[valentin.gavan at gdfsuez.com]

Dear Eric Urban,

I had the same problem with Type 534 and Vista (see https://www-old.cae.wisc.edu/pipermail/trnsys-users/2009/004787.html ) and I think the origin must be the same with Windows 7.

After you disable the desktop composition according to the link I have send to you, you should go in Control Panel\Regional Settings to verify and eventually to change the number format. In my case, the default for the numbers with decimal was comma instead of dot. Apparently Type 534 plugin uses dot instead of comma.

I'm having a problem with Type 534.  I have double-checked that both the plugin path and the data file path are referenced correctly.  However, when I click on the plugin icon in the bottom left corner of the parameter input window, the plugin window opens, but there is nothing visible in the window.  If I click around in the window, sometimes a drop-down menu opens, but otherwise it's invisible.  This problem was not present with Windows XP.  It has only been happening since I switched to Windows 7.  How can I get the plugin window to open properly?

Thanks,
Eric Urban
