Smartshape failed to load text - error message

Enzo-Odorico wrote on 1/26/2020, 8:00 PM

I am using Designer Pro X. I have the fall update for 2019 installed. I have several documents and websites.

One particular website will not open. It loads about 80% of the way. It says "Smartshape failed to load text"

I've done quite a bit of work on that website and don't want to have to re-do it. Other websites seem to be opening so far, but I haven't done much in the way of new work or modifications in the past six months. I run it as administrator. Doesn't help.

Looking for help.

Hi

. . . . It loads about 80% of the way. It says "Smartshape failed to load text" . . . .

Was this created with the current version you have or a previous version?

If the current version - then the project file may be corrupt - do you have backups that you can test?

It was created with a previous version. Not sure how I would re-install it to test as I've updated through downloads.

John (@johnebaker) is asking whether you have backups of your project file, not earlier versions of Designer Pro!

If you do have any earlier version of the project, can you successfully open and use the most recent version of those?
