Yes, I'm seeing it too on the latest development code.

Looks like the dialog isn't getting populated initially, and only does
so in response to "changed" signals from the combo box.  I've seen this

Mind filing a bug report?  Should be an easy fix if I'm right.

No worries...will try to figure that out.  I see the link on the main
Evolution page.  Just curious if you seen the other error, too?

Thx
