Second answer on this: I re-installed beta v. 3.61.12 to test what happens if I don't drag the pane. If it has not been dragged after installing this beta, it does not disappear. However, it behaves as if always external. I can't have it in a split window of the message editor, on the left. It covers my text if I do that. When I position it on the right and re-size it to accommodate several attachments, it does remember the size and position relative to my body text within the editor window. But if I open a new message with not much body text and therefore smaller vertical height, the attachment pane is half within the editor window and half out on the monitor screen. I write messages within sized windows that are not full screen, so that I can cascade the folder view of the message I'm replying and TB!'s main window behind my editor window, with just enough visible that a quick click of the cursor will change the focus among the cascaded windows. It's as if the attachment pane is now in permanent external position mode. When the pane first disappeared, I thought that maybe one of my cascaded windows was overlaying it, so I minimized everything, but that didn't help. Once dragged, the attachment actually disappears until TB! is closed and re-launched. Even if this new way is working as designed, it is sufficiently inconvenient to me that I will stay with v. 3.61.11 unless a fixed attachment pane in a split-editor-window fashion is available to me. I will keep on making tests of future betas, until an msi comes along that makes it hard for me to get back to a version that displays the attachment pane the way it's convenient for me. But I'm not going to use an attachment pane that disappears as soon as it is dragged to another position, and keeps on disappearing whether or not any future dragging is done. -- Best regards, Mary The Bat 3.61.12 Echo (Beta) on Windows XP 5.1 2600 Service Pack 2 ________________________________________________________ Current beta is 3.61.12 (Echo) | 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html IMPORTANT: To register as a Beta tester, use this link first - http://www.ritlabs.com/en/partners/testers/
