20 We have observed strange behaviour, on one machine only. We have a desktop which has SAP GUI 4.6D and Windows NT.
GuiXT works without problems on the live system.
On our quality assurance system it appears initially on the first screen, but not in other transactions. And when I return to the first screen, it is no longer there. The GuiXT “Screen Elements” page is blank, and the GuiXT still shows the script for the first screen. It doesn’t seem to recognise that I am on a new SAP screen. Can you help?

Can you tell me how we can connect to OSS1 without first deactivating GuiXT, and without getting the error message?
