Trying D2006... |

Michael Baytalsky | .... and it looks pretty good!
First time since D7 I'm actually enjoying it. Fairly quick, not too overloaded (cause you can start all personalities separately), can be customized back to D7 fully undocked look, fixes some of the VCL bugs, that were there since D5. "I'd recommend it to a friend". Michael P.S. The splash screen is horrendous. It's black and it grows! Poor old buggy image editor has been finally put to death. Good riddance, I say... but no replacement!? So, I guess, we are not editing glyphs and icons this year. Oh, that's probably why it's got the same icon as D2005 (for all personalities!) . Borland should have really been called Shameland. Gotta love them. |

Jon Lloyd Duerdoth | Michael,
Have you run into the disappearing main menu problem. I find, on many occasions, flipping to other application I can't restore the main menu. The other windows are restored but I don't have access to the main menu items. I haven't played enough to see what the problem is. D7 is like a comfortable pair of slippers. I guess I'll get used to D2006 eventually.

Jon Lloyd Duerdoth | Mike,
Nope that doesn't do it. Every time I drop to the desktop with [Windows] D I lose the main menu when I return to D2006. If I close the open module and restore D2006 the menu then reappears and then I can restore the last open module. Tedious but it works. I guess I just have to stop dropping to the desktop Jon Mike Shkolnik wrote: >> Have you run into the disappearing main menu problem. >> I find, on many occasions, flipping to other application >> I can't restore the main menu.

I just hit Alt-F (which shows the main menu and drops down the File menu) then Esc. Works every time.

Jon Lloyd Duerdoth | Jeff,
Well tried it but no luck... The problem does not exist if I use the default layout just when I use the "Classic Undocked" I guess I've got to get used to the D2006 way of doing things.

Michael Baytalsky | > Nope that doesn't do it. > Every time I drop to the desktop with [Windows] D I tried to reproduce it and was only lucky one time in undocked mode to get top portion disappear. Then I clicked right mouse button on Delphi's tray button and selected Restore and everything restored just fine. After that, I was unable to reproduce it again. (Seem to only happens once after start). It behaves strangely in undocked mode, I give them that. It doesn't react on Logo-M shortcut too. Michael > I lose the main menu when I return to D2006.

Jon Lloyd Duerdoth | Michael,
For me it happens every time... but I was using Alt-Tab to restore or a left click on the tray. Once I used your right click | restore method, it didn't happen again. until the next time I started up D2006. By the way, with the main menu "disappeared", it's really easy to crash D2006 D7 still looks good.
