Blank menu bars
« on: October 04, 2007, 12:03:31 PM »
Kirk, When I start 4.5.2 and now (just d/l'ed) 4.5.3 the menu area that shows the sort and view by drop boxes is completely gray. It just shows up as a gray rectangle. I have to grab the rectangle and pull it down (undocking it) then I can put it back and it will be visible.

Does it stay visible when you quit and relaunch PM, or do you have to do this each time?  Also, I take it you're running the Windows version?

Can you post a screen shot?  Use the "Additional Options..." link when composing your response and you can upload a JPEG.

Thanks,

Here you go. The bar stays blank/gray just like that until I grab it and move it . Then it will display normally until the next time I run PM

Thanks for the screenshot.  I know understand what you were describing.

When you tear it off from the window, try resizing it wider before you put it back.  That should take care of the problem.

HTH,
