For the text issue you can set the theme of the stack to "legacy" and it
will use the old settings.
What bug are you seeing?

6.7.5 is my poison of choice. 8.x gives an error when it opens. Bug was
reported several times, but it's still there, even in the latest. Also, my
Windows applications are tightly spaced in the UI department, and 8.x text
spacing goes crazy. It would take a lot of time to go through everything
and adjust the text spacing.

Don't forget to use "OMG/LOL/derisno/perv" as in for example: "OMG, why
are you using 6.7, are you a total perv? Derisno past! LOL." :)
There is a history to every product, and not only do we learn a lot by
comparing past to present, but the latest version of LC that people take
for granted owes a lot of fixes and some features to Paul in particular due
to his meticulous work and testing, providing a huge benefit to the entire
community!
It's wonderful to keep up with recent LC releases, especially where Apple
is concerned, but sometimes circumstances and LC bugs/features can affect
the speed of that process. Then you have people who grab the latest DP,
precisely because it is the very latest thing, and get confused trying to
tell the difference between their own bugs and DP bugs. I help people with
that often enough to know that a chorus of "just grab the latest" is advice
that needs clarification.

I believe this menu issue is also a current bug in LC 8.1.2! Haven't
tried it yet in LC 9, but I will soon. LC 6.6 was okay, so it must have
been introduced in 6.7 and remained until now.

Change for the sake of change keeps some people incredibly happy, others
less so! The new interface does take some getting used to, and the old
interface definitely had its strengths too, as I've realized lately with
certain particular tasks and with teaching others. Much to learn from
comparing and critiquing LC versions, enjoying the very latest as well as
some past specimens!
