Hello:
I think this is a misbehavior of GiD: when going to PostProcessor,
sometimes the loading of the res file takes a moment. During that moment,
if the mouse is used to click on any menu (or if a shortcut ALT + letter is
used), then GiD prompts an error message:
= Error: can't read "backgroundfilename": no such variable.
Note that this does not happen when the GiD main window comes back into
focus (the Reading Postprocess Job window takes the focus while loading the
Res file), but only when one tries to access a menu.
Regards,
Philippe
