That was exactly what I needed to know. Thanks!

2020-11-17 08:14:06 -0500 marked best answer ${WING:FILENAME} example needed

I have tried so many ways to use ${WING:FILENAME} in my script, that I am out of ideas. In my script, I want to use the filename of the script as a variable. So simply put, I want something like this:

fileName = ${WING:FILENAME}

After reading https://wingware.com/doc/proj/variabl... I tried just about every combination, including os.environ.get, but I keep getting a syntax error on ${WING:FILENAME}. I am positive I am just making a stupid mistake in my thought process somewhere, but I just need to be able to use this variable. So I need help :-/

Just updated Python to 3.8.5 using homebrew. Problem gone.

I have the exact same problem. Python version 3.7.6 installed through brew as well.

I can now confirm that V7.2.3.0 fixes the issue. This is very very nice to be able to use again. Thanks!

It is July 13th now. I uninstalled Wing and removed all settings again. Re-installed and tried it again because you said

Using macOS Catalina and Wing Pro, I have the following issue:

When Wing is NOT active and I double-click a .py file somewhere, Wing starts and opens that file.

Whenever Wing is already active, double-clicking a .py file does switch to the Wing window (changes focus to it), but it does not open the file. So any subsequent source files, I have to open from the file menu in Wing. It doesn't matter how many files I have open in Wing at that time (even with all files closed it doesn't work).

Completely removed Wing and all settings files, re-installed and tried again. No joy. This one is pretty recent and I have to say... not a fan.

Another observation: When I try this in PyCharm... it just works. Is this really a Catalina issue?

That actually is a decent workaround for my workflow. Thanks! One question keeps nagging me though: If this is Catalina

I just installed WingPro V7.2.0.0 RC2. It seems to be fixed. Thanks! :-)

I am just happy this gets attention.

2019-12-18 08:36:59 -0500 marked best answer Selecting editor by left-clicking also activates text selection

I have a weird issue: Whenever I select the Wing IDE editor window by left-clicking on it, I am automatically in a text selection mode. When I move the mouse, the yellow area shows what I am selecting. The only way to stop it, seems to be to left-click somewhere in the editor window again. This doesn't happen when I Command-Tab to the window.

I have had this for a while and was sort of ignoring it, but I would like to turn it off now. Because of my ignoring it, I am not sure if it was a Wing update or macOS Catalina. This behaviour does not occur in any other program I use.

Is this a setting I can change or something I am not seeing here?

Thanks, Jan
