When I use the menu setup it sets up the menu which works fine in MacOS X but it is in small (6 or 8) in the Windows. I went into the control panel of Windows an increase the font size of the menu and it increased the Windows bar but the app menu below is still the same. So my problem is finding the menu group in the IDE which effects the Windows/App menu. I may not be setting the app menu properly, I let LiveCode do it I I don't see a menu in the application browser.??
