Edit Mode Issue: Save Button Inactive and Window Positions Not Saving

Support Customer Support
1

I am experiencing an issue with the Edit Mode feature in World of Warcraft: Midnight.

When I reposition UI windows, the “Save” button remains greyed out and does not activate. Because the button doesn’t light up, I am unable to save any changes, and the windows revert to their original locations.

Is this a known bug in the current build, or is there a specific interaction preventing the save state from triggering?

Can you try resetting your user interface?

I would recommend renaming the folders so you can easily put them back if it doesn’t work.

Probably the best thing I can think of is to try a full UI Reset. I don’t see this is an issue that GMs will be able to help with, since they don’t work with bugs, and unless its impacting all users I would suspect its a local issue on your computer, which means that its unlikely that QA could duplicate the issue, if you feel its a bug, your would want to create a post in the Bug Report forum.

  1. Completely exit World of Warcraft.
  2. Uninstall any addon managers to make sure they don’t re-add your removed addons.
  3. In the Blizzard Battlenet desktop application, click Options and select Show in Explorer (Windows®) or Reveal in Finder (Mac®).
  4. Open the World of Warcraft® folder.
  5. Open the retail folder.
  6. Rename the Cache, Interface, and WTF folders to CacheOld, InterfaceOld, and WTFOld.
  7. Re-launch World of Warcraft so the changes can take effect.

If the UI Reset does not fix the problem, you might try the UI and Macro forum.

Same issue for me. Did you find a solution/workaround?

Well, seeing as the OP did not return to the thread, it’s possible that the UI reset fixed the problem. You might give that a try.

One thing that prevented me from saving, when I was first playing with it way back, is setting a layout (profile) name at the top using the dropdown menu. You can set it character specific, using that character name, or a generic name that you can import and use across all characters.
