Drop Down Menus
When I'm working in any application, then click on the drop down menu, the
menu is not shown until I run the mouse down it. It used to be blue (I think). How do I change it back? -- beachymom

Re: Drop Down Menus
Windows doesn't have drop down menus. It's menus are combined Pull Down and Pop Up.
Pull Down Depress left mouse button on menu bar item, move mouse pointer to item on menu you want, release button. Pop Up Click menu bar item, click menu item. Drop Down Move mouse cursor over menu bar item, click menu item. You can sort of see what this is like by pressing Alt + F then moving the cursor over the menu bar. I think GEM used drop down. -- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Read David defending the concept of violence. http://margokingston.typepad.com/har...e_ga.html#more ================================================= "Wesley Vogel" <123WVogel955@comcast.net> wrote in message news:OOAIOuc%23FHA.2192@TK2MSFTNGP14.phx.gbl... > Have a look at this. > > Transparent drop-down Menu and disappearing menu text > http://windowsxp.mvps.org/transmenu.htm > > -- > Hope this helps.

Re: Drop Down Menus
Apparently Microsoft isn't aware of that fact.
There are several types of menus, including drop-down menus, shortcut menus, and cascading menus. The following sections cover these menus in more detail.
