Thank you, Martin. I have 7 non-Apple Status Items on my Mac account, and none of them are accessible via the F8 key. However, you are correct. I just installed iStat Menus from bjango.com and, indeed, its Status Items *are* accessible via F8. Furthermore, instead of being appended to the left, they take priority over all the other non-Apple Status Items. The right half of my menu bar looks like this: | Other Non-Apple Items | iStat Menu Items | Apple Items Apparently, bjango has figured out a trick that no one else has. I wonder if it's "legal"? _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
