10. Tips

• If the toolbar does not appear, confirm the SuperStage plugin is enabled and restart the editor.
• If a menu item does nothing, check the Output Log for module loading or authorisation errors.
• If the SuperConsole plugin was previously installed separately, remove it from the project Plugins directory before upgrading to 26H2.6 to avoid colliding with the module of the same name in the main plugin.
