========================== Note from Peter Gannon: This thread was getting a little complicated (for me anyway), because there were discussions of 2 separate issues  ... The good news is that they both have fixes  So I am locking the thread, and have started two separate threads for people to track/post regarding the issues/fixes. 1. If you've lost the ability to edit the buttons on the custom tab on the new toolbar, the new thread with the fix is here http://www.pgmusic.com/forums/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=379558&#Post3795582. If you're running a non-English version of Biab, and can't see any buttons on the toolbars, the fix is here http://www.pgmusic.com/forums/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=379557#Post379557========================= Hello, I installed 2017 release today, but I can't see any toolbar. I read the help manual but I still end up with chords/notation panel only. I surely missed an episode... thanx for help Mo.

CTRL+T will change between the two different views that 2017 has. Try that.

thanx for quick support
But the toolbars are empty (no icons anymore): only 3 gray bars, no drop station to choose icons from. ...
Any smart tip ?
Mo.

That is definitely not right. Sorry you're having trouble.
Do you see these problems in both modes using CTRL+T?
Did you install to the same location as an older version of BIAB, or is this a new first-time use?
Mo, can you tell us what version of Windows you use, in case that gives a clue?
I assume you downloaded BIAB. I suggest downloading the program again and reinstalling. If you don't succeed, give PG Music Support a call.

Glad you got it sorted Mo. It's unusual to not have any icons. I see you've been in good hands though.

Mo, thanks for reporting back. It's rare, but I assume your first download became corrupted. Enjoy BIAB 2017!

When I first installed, it came up without the taskbar. I randomly clicked on the buttons under "Master" and it came up. Ctrl-T is good to know. I was mildly concerned at first...:)

I'm having a similar problem right now: all the icons on the custom tab are gone:  Return to Factory Settings doesn't work.

Regarding missing buttons in the CUSTOM tab selection area: Return to Factory Settings doesn't work. Either deleting the file INTRFACE.BBW or RETURN TO FACTORY SETTINGS is what caused the buttons in the CUSTOM tab area to vanish. Even reinstalling everything from scratch doesn't restore the buttons at present This was discovered late in beta testing, too late to fix it before release... But PGMusic knows about this and I'd bet it will be fixed in an early patch.

PhillyJazz, I reposted your observation for the developers. Puzzle. It's too soon to know if these problems are related.

Yes, the problem appeared just after I did a Return to Factory settings (to try to solve other problems, btw)  Let's hope this get resolved soon. In the meaning time, is there anything I can do to have the icons there again?

Hi Cerio,
That sounds like an issue peculiar to doing a return to factory settings.
Solution is to:
#1 . When bbw is not running, erase intrface.bbw (in BB folder)
Things should be fine then. If you want to do a return to factory settings, do the #1 method instead. We will fix it in next patch.
Have Fun!

Yep... just tested it... deleting INTRFACE.BBW brought my buttons back! Thanks Peter!
I had deleted it just before doing a factory reset, so I blamed both of those things for the loss of the buttons. If I had deleted it AFTER the factory reset, it would have restored the buttons before I even realized they were gone.

hello,
same problem here.
deleting INTRFACE.BBW and factory reset does not solve the problem.
re-download didnt solve the problem.

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!
If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.
A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."
"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."
"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
