Hi,
Yes, you need to move it around and resize it as appropriate.
You need not run it on their machines. It works on def-files and can be run
anywhere.
If you do not import the resulting def, nothing can happen.
It converts everything, so I do not know the end result. I suspect that BMC
has no Base Mode buttons defined as drop-down menus, as they would not work in
Mid-Tier. If that is the case, they would only have Custom or Overlay
drop-down menus, and you would be fine importing the end result.
Come to think of it, it might be that I need to add some kind of property to
the Nav-field to put it in the proper Custom mode... Let me know if you need
that, and I will look into it.
Regardless, use it to do a report of the existing drop-down menus.
