Hi - I'm using the latest release of PH (not the new beta), and saw
some strange behavior this morning. It stopped processing triggers.
In the log I can see the triggers being detected, but no MACROs are
called. A restart fixed it, but it was weird. If it happens again, is there
anything I should look at? Is there any place triggers can be globally
disabled?
Thanks!

Jeff,
My guess is that the execution queue crashed. With an older version of PowerHome (and new version), one way would be to look at the PowerHome Status
screen and see if the Execution Queue is filling up and nothing being processed. You could also go the menu File->Debug Info to get a snapshot of internal
variables that you can look at or send to me for review.
On the newest version of PowerHome (2.2beta3), there is also a function that you can execute in the multi-editor called ph_stacktrace(). This function
will show the whole state of the execution stack and can be useful in tracking down what may have caused a hang.
If it happens again, before restarting, see if the File->Clear EXE Queue menu item does anything to restore normal operation.
Dave.

Hmmm - timed events were still chugging along - (sorry, should have
mentioned) - wouldn't that need the execution queue? PH hadn't
completely hung. I could see activity in the log. I could see triggers
fire - but the macro they were supposed to trigger did not appear..
weird...

Jeff,
If Timed Events were processing (along with the associated actions which would have been sent to EQ), then the EQ probably wasnt hung.
Not sure what else could do it unless the Boolean field was evaluating to 0 or false. A trigger will still fire but if this field is 0 or
false then the action will not be performed.
Dave.

It was several different triggered events that weren't showing up. Ok -
let it go.. Happened once in the many many years I've been
running PH :-)
Thanks!
