Well, for me not. And second for me is flickering when it is switched on. Probably has to do that my laptop is not the fastest (600 MHz) but for mailing it is quite okay. I guess the "weak" processor plus Win XP makes the item flickering. I don't mind it as I am not using it - but maybe someone wants it and is disturbed by the flickering. -- Best regards, Martin Using The Bat 2.04.4 on Windows XP Current version is 2.04.04 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

Where is the Menu Navigator Button? I've never used it. I use the keyboard most of the time so to be honest I don't stay tuned in to what buttons are available. I've selected and unselected the option, and did NOT notice a change. So either I'm missing something, or? What can I say?

Menu Navigator & Keyboard
AFAIK, there is not presently a way to configure a keyboard shortcut to navigate the menu navigator. If this is the case, would it not be particularly helpful to have the ability to call it from the keyboard for those of us who prefer not to resort to the mouse in our everyday usage of TB? If there is some agreement on this, I'll file a feature request . . . -- Peace, be well J Allen R Day http://protempore.org We are an impossibility in an impossible universe. -Ray Bradbury The Bat! 2.04.4, BayesIt! 0.4gm SE | Windows XP Service Pack 1 build 2600 Current version is 2.04.04 | "Using TBUDL" information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
