[ANN] Release 9.6.2 RC-3

Tue Mar 16 03:05:58 EDT 2021

Thanks to everyone testing this! Trashing the prefs didn’t help, trashing all files in the ”Application support”-folder didn’t help! But, I tried to unplug my second monitor… Started LC and then, everything worked! Plugged the monitor back again, end now, it works! Now I can even click the buttons in the ”Save before closing”-dialog that is tucked to the menu bar. I have not been able to do that before!

The only hiccup now is that the revMenubar starts right aligned on my second monitor, but I always move it to my second (bigger) screen anyway so that is a minor bump in the road.
