World: r3wp

Put them into the same dir, if possible.

same problem

the only response I see is that the hilite appears above the buttons 
and menus

I'll check my user.r if that's what causes the problem, wait a second, 
please ...

the other thing is that if I close the demo window down, it doesn't 
return to console unless I use ESC

Yes, that's true, that's one of the remaining bugs.

A question: When you started the script, was there disk activity?

I tried an earlier version, and it worked as advertised

The demo tries to read system/options/home to build a menu that reflects 
the structure beneath that dir. Maybe that's what the problem causes?

My system/options/home is my rebgui directory, which has some subdirectories

before, it was my rebol/view directory

Before means: before you run the script? And the script changes it?

no, just when I last tried the demo out.

I have since installed later version of  view.

No, that shouldn't be  the cause.

I just installed view and no change.

But you got the demo window on the screen, together with a console 
window saying "Menu-System Demo" ?

Also, the demo window takes 2 clicks on the X to close it down.

correct

>> do %menu-system-demo.r
Script: "Menu-System Demo" (10-Jun-2005)
Script: "Menu-System" (11-Jun-2005)
Menu-System Demo

Ha, that's a hint: for some reason the menu may show invisible ...

Let me have a check ...

invisible menus .. kewl

No, all fine here on 1.3.0.3.1 (can't believe that's the reason)

I'll check that

I just got a black bar drop down from the "cool" button

and a "dot" under the "weired" button.

On a fresh console: what does system/options/standard/face/font look 
like?

I think the two clicks to close the window down do indicate invisible 
menus that have dropped down.

>>  system/options/standard/face/font
** Script Error: Invalid path value: standard
** Near: system/options/standard/face/font
>>

the "black dot" or "black hole" should *be* a menu. so, yes.

typo, sorry, system/standard/face/font

>> probe system/standard/face/font
make object! [
    name: "arial"
    style: none
    size: 12
    color: 0.0.0
    offset: 2x2
    space: 0x0
    align: 'center
    valign: 'center
    shadow: none
]

I'm going to reboot my system and see if things change.

Okay, too. I'm disappointed, and I guess you, too ... Still thinking

No, that wasn't it. Rebooted, too.

Have you the .r association set up? What happens if you double click 
the demo?

.r association is with notepad

I'll test he following: I download both scripts from rebol.org and 
try these ...

Even these work fine here.

I changed it to associate with rebol, double clicked and no difference

still get invisible menus

;-)     (or more appropiate:    :-(

Just tried 1.2.125.3.1 and the rebol.org scripts. I'm a little bit 
out of ideas.

Which menu / button do you click first?

Just downloaded it again, and still no go.

Where's your earlier combined demo?

makes no difference .. file, edit or weird

These are available on rebol.org thru the script history.

Does anything happen when you click "Query Menu-Bar/About/Wish" button?
