Weird menu thing

2000-12-02 Thread Allan Rae
All the menus (except View, Navigate and Documents) have started popping up halfway down their entries if that makes sense. Instead of the top of the menu lining up with the mouse, the halfway point down the menu is lining up with the mouse. I haven't moved or resized the main window. View, Nav
