Re: Problem Editing GDB Settings (Search Path for Source Files)

[Andrew Shepard]

Found out what I was doing wrong. The mouse cursor has to physically be 
in the edit box in order to do editting. My mouse was physically rolling 
and the cursor was moving out of the edit box window. Once that happened 
I lost the ability to continue to edit.
