I don't think it is a matter of having deleted the tbuser.def file some
time in the past, or not. There must be something in the contents of

I'm just glad that you don't mind that I posted the issue report on
the bug that you found.

You did set us all off on a long conversation about it, as you've
seen.

The important thing is that it's confirmed and assigned to Robo.

So, good work, NetVicious! And thanks for the added note to the BT

I wrote a bug note for this issue,
http://www.ritlabs.com/bt/view.php?id=4835 .

Marek Mikus confirmed the deficiency immediately and several who
experienced the bug also put supporting notes.

In my report, I speculated that perhaps people who had at some point
deleted a pre-3.5 tbuser.def did not have the conflict.

I had never had occasion to delete a tbuser.def file, until I began
experimenting to look for the cause of this bug. But I don't have
information about others' history on this, so it's a mere
"brainstorming" type of hypothesis I am making.

What do you think about it?

Stuart, would you consider writing an "expanding" note to my BT entry
on the blank Specials menu item line?

I tried to express that the missing label is not significant just for
itself--but also for the possibility that old tbuser.def files which
conflict with the new menu or toolbar changes done by the developers
could continue to be a problem in future betas.

But I'm not sure that I said it clearly. The link is:

I completely agree.

My customization consisted only of removing half the icons on the
Standard toolbar, so I was, after about 10 minutes of trying to recall
how the whole Customise site worked, able to get that re-done.

But that still left me with the Configuration and Search toolbars
taking up real estate and annoying me with their presence, and I
couldn't remember how I got rid of them, before.

I looked all over for about an hour, without the penny once dropping.

Finally, I decided to read the Tools and View menus again.

Ah! Of course--a place to untick the toolbars I didn't want to see!

Grr! It is so hard re-learning The Bat!

So, a BT note is definitely needed. What is polite to do here? Should

Very well stated, Bill. The point is that RL still has to fix the
problem. It is similar to the way in which users who could not get
versions 26-29 to start. They found a workaround, but RL still had to
come out with version 30 that would start without deleting that config
file or whatever it was.

That's an observation, not a solution.  If you delete
tbuser.def, you lose customization - including all the
shortcuts you spend much time creating - because in the
new method it is so hard to find things (for example, I
wasn't able to find the location of customization for
the View Folder - I have a shortcut to toggle the
message list).

Besides, once I did redo all my customization, this
problem may happen again.  What a waste of time.

I did mine as soon as the first named beta in the series offering
customise appeared. Then I played with it a bit more in the others
leading up to the 3.5 release; but not since then.

I do believe so. And I think the developers are going to  have to look
at this (because of the wider implications of tbuser.def making
interferences in the future, when people already have many
customizations done that they don't wish to delete--as you pointed out
in a previous message.)

Can't think of a way right now to word this in a BT note--but it does
go beyond the minor incovenience of the empty line in the Specials
menu.

You mean it could be a leftover from customization that were made before
3.5 final appeared. Well - I have no idea. :-)

Maybe those who had the problem and had to delete tbuser.def can remember
when they last made a customization, and when they last deleted the

Fully agree.

But--please correct me if my reasoning is wrong--I thought that would
indicate that it won't be a problem for people getting the public
download when .30 is replaced on RitLabs website, because they will
not have been doing customization, as we have in the beta series.

I had never deleted tbuser.def until now.

MAU, for instance, didn't have the bug manifest itself. I've seen on
other threads in past months (I think) that he *had* at some point
deleted tbuser.def.

Incidentally, what I had done in Customise--way back--was to take
about half the icons off the Standard toolbar (functions I didn't
need), to keep it to a single line.

And now, of course, "they're back." :(

I don't know if it is enough to "rest" on the "solution" of deleting
tbuser.def - what if a user has made a lot of customisations? I think it is
not reasonable to sacrifice that for a bugfix.

Updates and bugfixes should be "customization-proof", or the whole idea of
customization is questionable IMHO. I would wish that Maxim/9Val
investigate further how this can be avoided in the future.

Thanks. Glad I was understandable, for once. :)
Zygmunt's attachment in mid:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
is the picture worth a thousand words, though!

Further comment: I saw your report that clicking on the blank line in
the menu does not make the item work for you.

It does for me. It brings up a dialog menu from which to choose which
TB! file to import from.

But, that's not sufficient. The name of the item clearly should be
placed in that blank space. Maybe someone will put an entry in BT and
post the link here. It's quite a minor bug, compared to so much that
the developers are working on, but I would support such a BT report.

Yes. Before I could try what Zygmunt had done, Roelof found the
solution. Delete (or rename) tbuser.def (it's in The Bat!/MAIL; if you
have made any use of Customiser, you'll have one). Then close The Bat!
and relaunch it.

I hope this will work for you, too, as it did for Roelof and for me.

As I wrote to you, it's what I have, also. And clicking on the blank
line does bring up the Dialog window; as you said, the menu works.

I hoped that deleting The Bat!/MAIL/tbuser.def and relaunching TB!
would cure the missing item's non-appearance.

It did not. Blank line is still there.

However, it did clear up the problem in Specials/Watch Replies In, for
me.

Roelof has just cured his "Watch Replies In" deficiency by deleting

As a final confirmation, I put my old tbuser.def back and I lost
'Watch replies in' again. So I guess it is related to some customising

A good thought. I do not use Watch Replies, I have no Virtual Folders

Did you read mid:[EMAIL PROTECTED] from Zygmunt?

He puts this work-around (begin copy-and-paste):

I had this in 3.5.27 (if I remember correctly) and my workaround was simple.
I opened Customiser, deleted the blank item and replaced this position with

Thanks. I had not noticed this earlier than .31, because I never did
click on the Main Window/Specials and I used Folder View/Specials only
for "View Source," and the item was not missing for me there.

Thanks for the info and for the work-around.

I may not be looking in the right place, but in Address
Book/File/Import From I do not see any .ABD; the choices offered me
that look like they might be what you mean are "LDIF file" or "INI
file" or "The Bat! Address Book (old v. 1.0 format)."

I don't seem to see a blank item either; there's a horizontal dividing
line just below "INI file" and a blank line below that, just above
"The Bat! Address Book (old v. 1.0 format)."

I have described what I see in detail, just in case it does confirm
your Address Book/Import appearance bug. Glad to know that the menu
works. :)

Okay, So now I count six of us with the bug. And the International
Pack possibility as the cause now ruled out.

What about your OS font choices--mine are large, 120 DPI, 1280x1024
pixels setting.

I don't know of any place to set font sizes for menus in the settings
offered by The Bat!

I think maybe International Pack and font sizes came to people's minds
because the developers have just been working on the charset.

I had this in 3.5.27 (if I remember correctly) and my workaround was simple.
I opened Customiser, deleted the blank item and replaced this position with
right one. Since such operation everything is OK.

However, I have also one blank item in Address Book Import menu. This should
be read "Import form TB address book (.ABD)" or similar, but the interface
don't contain such function. Despite of this, the menu works.

This is what I see--only one choice in both the Folder View
window/Specials and in the Main window/Specials. But the choice that I
see is "New Watch Replies Folder."

However, Folder View/Specials shows me the item "Watch Replies In."
Main window/Specials has a blank line where "Watch Replies In" should
be. But if you highlight the blank line, then you see the one choice,
and for me it is "New Watch Replies Folder."

When I click on "New Watch Replies Folder," a dialog window comes up
headed "Create a New Chat Folder."

Pro version here, no OTFE installed, and latest msi I have used was
3.5.30. Default theme. Theme-relation has been pretty well ruled out
in other posters' messages.

Some have suggested that it might be OS font size related. Do you
think that's possible?

Others seem to think that just having the International Pack installed
might be a cause. I do have the International Pack installed.

Ian, you are person number 4 to report or confirm this bug. Four

It's been suggested that it could be having the International Pack

The only thing bizarre for me about the appearance of the menus is the
way in which words are capitalized or not capitalized. Thus far I have
not managed to divine the rules that RL is following. Perhaps it is a

I understand. It's not theme-related.

I do have the International Pack installed. I don't know about
NetVicious or David Elliott.

I'm running XP at 1280x1024 pixels. Large size, 120 DPI. Windows
Classic, modified to a custom wallpaper. Appearance settings: Windows
XP Style with large fonts.

So, I put those configurations up, just in case they are influencing
the drop-down Specials menu to have a blank line for "Watch Replies
In." And in case they match what NetVicious and David Elliott have as
OS settings.

I can't see any place to choose "fonts" for drop-down and context
menus in The Bat!/Options/Preferences.

I doubt that it will be difficult to track down the cause. Theme was
just one possibility. Other possibilities are:

   o International Pack might provide a necessary font

   o Screen resolution (I run my laptop at 1920x1200) 

   o An altered DPI setting that increases the size of fonts in the
display (which can  definitely create some whacky effects).

But I reckon that this should become clear when RL looks at the code
for that particular menu item. At this stage, and as a non-programmer,
my guess is there is something different about it.

Don't know. Big puzzle. Missing for NetVicious and me. Missing for
David Elliott running Office 2003 theme. No one else confirms it
missing.

If one hovers on the blank space, one gets "New Watch Replies
in," as a side-menu, and if one clicks on that--for me--up comes
"Create a new chat folder."

So, it's basically a puzzling cosmetic effect--the function is still
there. Well, I guess that one creates a "Chat" folder to "Watch
Replies In." I have never used these features, myself, but Miguel A.
Urech--who said he was going to be away for a few days, in a post
earlier this week--needs "Watch Replies" to function for his work.

So I'm interested in it for MAU's sake, and for the sake of everyone
else who uses it.

Its always OK here.

I changed to Default & restarted TB just as you suggested. And I saw the
menu item, and I saw that it was good. :-)

Then I said "let there be theme!" (ok, enough of this). I picked the
Office2003 theme that David reported as having the problem, and restarted
TB again, and again - no problem. Doesn't seem to be theme related I'd say.

Maybe it has to do with the fact that I am using TB without any
