Hi Ken, The script doesn't save the new position, so two things are available to me: 1) Reinstall RunRev, and maybe that will take care of it 2) Copy this issue to support. I'll let you know the outcome. Regards, Mark stuart -- View this message in context:

Hi folks, Anyone know why the startup position of Revolution's menu and button bar would position itself not at the top left, on WinXP? Each time I reposition it to the top left and close it, it puts itself back where it was before - about a full height of the bar down from the top and

Ubuntu Linux - fun with fonts

I may be repeating a well-known fact - even if that be so, it should bear repeating: I recently authored a silly little stack for kids to type words into fields on one of my Macs; set the standard font size in the fields to 36 . . . nothing mind-blowing popped them on my Ubuntu boxes up at

I've just uploaded a stack that will PATCH your MenuBar (RR Media, Studio, Enterprise - the lot) so that it will open in the top left corner of the screen. 1. This is not recommended for Mac users as it will pop the Menubar under the Mac Menubar! 2. Make a backup before you use this patch. 3.

a couple hurdles I had with Rev

Here are a few things that I've been confused about: 1) How do I find the number of times a certain character appears in a string? The offset function only finds the first occurance, it doesn't count them. 2) Why isn't there a deleteKey handler? There's a backspaceKey and a few others, but I'd

Thanks for the quick reply. I guess I did something wrong when I search for deleteKey. By the way, why doesn't the Undo command under Edit in Rev work? I accidently deleted most of my program and tried to undo it, but it didn't work. So I decided to close the program without saving. Annoyingly,
