Menu items disabled

#1

Since yesterday, I have many menu items disabled in ST2.
I just don’t understand why :frowning:

By example :
*] The “copy file path” item in the context menu is disabledhi
*] most of menu items in Edit menu are disabled

  • Edit > Line > Swap Line Up | Down
  • Edit > Comment > all items
  • Edit > Mark > Set Mark (and the items below, but I suppose it’s normal
  • Edit > Convert Case > all items
  • Edit > Permuts lines > all items
  • Edit > Code Folding > all items
  • and many others…
    *] Some items of the view menu are disabled too (view > indentation > convert indentation to tabs | spaces by example)

I already had this problem a few weeks ago. I solved it by reinstalling ST2 on the current installation - cause I don’t want to lose my current settings and plugins. But this did not work twice.

I’m using ST2 build 2181 under win XP SP3.

This is just a shot in the dark but try going to your appdata/Sublime Text 2/Settings/ folder. Then try deleting Session.sublime_session. See if that helps.

Is there something special in the console when ST2 start ?

If not, http://www.sublimetext.com/docs/2/revert.html
But don’t delete data folder, move it to another location.

If it works with a fresh install, try to copy your backuped data folder back one subfolder at times to find the which plugins or settings file cause the problem.

All these menu items work via Python plugins, which indicates something is wrong with the Python environment. Do you have any of the Python environment variables such as PYTHONHOME or PYTHONPATH set on your system?

I solved my problem by launching ST2 with a .bat file as described there: Unable to run Sublime2 on install Windows 7
Thanks for your help.
