Re: Problem with menus in nedit-5.5-5 - cygcheck.out (1/1)
[Apologies - I think something ate the text of my last post, leaving only the attachment] Just installed this, and the NEdit background (right-click) menu no longer appears. Also, the menu-bar menus are behaving oddly: clicking on the bar displays the corresponding menu as normal, but if I then click on another menu without selecting anything from the first menu (e.g. click on 'File' and then 'Edit') the second menu does not appear. I have to click twice more on the second menu to make it appear. I start the X server using 'XWin -multiwindow'. If I revert to nedit-5.5-4, the menus all work as expected.

Feedback welcomed. I can confirm that NEdit popup-window resizing now works again for me. Thanks very much for sorting this out.

I can't grab a corner, and the 'Size' option in the window menu is greyed-out. Resizing did work prior to the X11R7.4 update. I've attached my .Xdefaults and the XWin logfile as well as cygcheck output. X server started with the following command: XWin -multiwindow -clipboard -silent-dup-error & To repeat: From the nedit menu bar... Preferences->Default Settings->Custimize Menus->Shell Menu... Fill-in the form as follows: Menu Entry = foo Command input = none Command Output = dialog Shell Command = ls -l Click 'OK' Then select the new shell menu item: Shell->foo The resulting dialog has corners that cannot be grabbed, and its (top-left) window manager menu has 'Size' greyed-out. -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://x.cygwin.com/docs/ FAQ: http://x.cygwin.com/docs/faq/
Re: Updated: nedit-5.5-4
> The following package was updated in the Cygwin distribution: > *** nedit-5.5-4 > > This release includes a patch for proper operation with X11R7.4. Since the X server update, some NEdit windows won't resize any more. I can't grab a corner, and the 'Resize' option in the window menu is greyed-out. Examples include the 'Find...' and Replace...' dialogs and, more importantly, the output from 'Shell' menu items that have their command output set to 'dialog'. I use this a lot, e.g. I have one for 'cvs diff'. The size of the output can vary enormously, so it's important to be able to resize the dialog. This definitely worked prior to the X11R7.4 upgrade. Any idea how I can diagnose the problem?
