Re: wmp 11 menu trouble
Hi, The most common place you get a popup menu is when you're focused on an object and you press the application key to get a shortcut (context) menu. This menu is a popup menu, it's not part of the main window, and only appears when needed. Similarly, if you use the new style main menus in wmp 11, there is no permanent menu displayed, but it appears if you press alt. The outline of burning a cd in wmp 11: 1. press the burn button to move to the burn page. This page has a similar layout to the library page, except that the list pane contains the burn list (which jaws reads as the basket list view!). 2. insert a blank cd. 3. To add items to the burn list: select items in the primary list view, press the application key, and choose add to burn list from the shortcut menu. 4. To burn the cd, press the start burn button at the end of the list pane, or press alt + s. David Bailes. original message- Hi, What do you mean when you say popup menu? I also have the menubar problem, but intermittently. For the most part, I can navigate using WMP 11 the same as version 10. Howeever, I've yet to figure out how to select tracks for ripping - I just cut and paste them from My Music Folders onto the cd drive and select burn to CD option and usually no problems from that point on. I did for awhile have the same problem with CDs stopping 2/3 through the burn process, but I've since cleaned the lense via a disc with tiny brush to wipe over the lense as well as blowing out my entire unit...

wmp 11 menu trouble
I just got WMP 11 by accident. So, I figured I'd give it a go. So far, I can get around the player fairly well. I just have one stupid problem. It's the menu bar. No matter whether I turn on classic menus or not, the menu bar gets focus and I can't tab around the main interface. I have to use the Jaws cursor to click on the display to bring focus away from the menu. It's like the menu bar was activated but won't go away. Pressing alt doesn't dismiss it. Actually, there are a few other problems, like: The Jaws keystrokes to focus to the play list or library tree view don't work now. And, I can't figure out how to select different albums when I select an artist in the play list Bobcat Audio List Help, Guidelines, Archives and more... http://www.pc-audio.org To unsubscribe from this list, send a blank email to: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
