Hi, The second rectangle is raised as we update it. Normally this is what we want as the current selected item should be raised to top. If you want to keep the third rect on top, just update it as well: grub_menu_region_update (&head, r2, 0, 0, r2->common.width, r2->common.height); grub_menu_region_update (&head, r3, 0, 0, r3->common.width, r3->common.height); grub_menu_region_apply_update (head); > why does the menu system have a glyph drawing function? > Is the one in font.c not suitable? The one in font.c is not usable, as it draws the whole glyph, but in the menu system, sometimes we only want to update a portion of it. > Why are there two methods for returning text width and height, one in > gfx_region in pixels, the other in text_region in characters?

For example, we need to find out the length of string "HELLO" so that we can align it to the center of screen. In graphic mode, this would be the pixel width, but in text mode, it's the number of characters, 5. -- Bean gitgrub home: http://github.com/grub/grub/ my fork page: http://github.com/bean123/grub/ _______________________________________________ Grub-devel mailing list Grub-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/grub-devel
