--------------------------
Here is my initial post.

"I noticed this when moving Page Setup to the MenuBar of my project but it also applies to any other window that is attached as a sheet and opened from the MenuBar.

When you select say the “File” menu from the menubar then it is highlighted in blue.

If you then select say “Page Setup…” or any other window that will open as a sheet then once the sheet window is opened the “File” menu remains highlighted in blue.

I believe that is incorrect, in that the menu should not be highlighted when the sheet window is displayed.

Is their some other action I should take or is this indeed a bug as I suspect?”

All I wanted was a positive response and all I got was a debate about what someone may or may not have seen in other apps and something on Google that started 2 years ago.

What I was hoping for was for someone in the know to say something along the lines of:

1. Yes, seen that, been raised before and there is nothing LC can do about it, don’t file a bug report.

2. Yes, seen that, been raised before and we are waiting for LC, don’t file a bug report.

2. Not seen it before suggest this…..

3. Not seen it, suggest you raise a bug report

4. Here is a workaround while we wait for LC

5. Here is a workaround as LC can’t do anything


Anyway after all the talk….

Posted a bug report to lengthen the list.


Bug 15081 <http://quality.runrev.com/show_bug.cgi?id=15081>


and...

Despite my mentioning XOJO I can honestly say that although the OS X interface of LC is not as refined as XOJO I do prefer working in LC and I don’t want a debate about the interface differences between the two.



All the best
