How do you fix this?

Jacqueline,

Thank your for you e-mail! Well, I actually started my project with the Windows menubar showing. I continued with this procedure until I was ready to create my Mac standalone. I remembered from all of my previous experiences with Rev and the RevList that this is the recommended procedure.

But you are right in assuming that my first card of my app does not have a menubar showing! This card has a nice graphic along with an altAccordion type menu. In my preOpen card script of for the first card my app I have: hide the group "menubar 1". On the rest of my cards the "menubar 1" is not hidden. I guess my question is how do other developers handle this type of situation when they hide the menubar on the first card? Or what do you suggest?
