Two Issues I need to get resolved

Advanced theme editor and Menu sections moving

from WinCustomize Forums
Is there a way that I can make the advanced theme editor, under Objectbar 1.99, my default theme editor. When trying to modify my Objectbar's sub-menu, with the legacy theme editor, in a multifunction mode, when I attempt to click on the 'change function' button, the original submenu then closes...then the properties window closes, and then Objectbar crashes and I'm left with no ability to edit the submenu. Under 1.65 I was able to right click on the submenu and the advance theme editor popped up, I could simply make my changes and move on. From one of the previous posts, I learned how to get back to the Advanced theme editor, which solved my problem of Icons on the parent menu for pop-ups, now ZI just need to be able to get at my sub-menus as easily.

The second thing I need to know is what button I need to select to ensure that when a window is open, all the submenu titles and .bmp on the right stay to the right. When I open a window, they all crowd left, close the window and they return to the right. The submenu titles hook into the focused window and change
to that windows menu titles...which is good, keep that, but I want to keep all the submenu titles shifted to the left.

Other than that...I'm really having a great time customizing it all!!!!

OOOps!

Second Issue: BMP and Titles slide right from far left...want to keep all on the far left. All rest is accurate. Sorry...must be feeling a little turned around today! Heh Heh Heh... I'll wipe the slober off my lip now and move along.

O.K. So I read the forum and get some creative ideas. I take the taskbar that I spent so much time crafting, and I want to modify it. I have some items that were originally multifunction items that I now want to be shortcuts, I have some shortcuts that I now want to be pop-ups and I have some extra menu items that I want to get deleted. Under 1.65 everything is fine...but the Object bar crashes easily. So I upgrade...I get the beta version. Nice, much more reliable. Doesn't crash easily...but damn, the theme editor is more archaic. Theres so much I can no longer do. O.K.... so I'll delete a few items and re-add them using this editor...but Oh No, that won't work cause under 1.99 thats the one thing that, 1.65 did, that causes the bar to now crash. No problem...I think... I'll just go back to 1.65, make a few modifications, then bring it back under 1.99 and be finished. So I did. My bar is now truncated. The last 3 to 4 fuctions that I had to the far right are now gone. I have to re craft them. I have to spend more time fixing what I originally spent so much time making. I'm now, pissed off!!! Why spend so much time adding features to objectbar when its basic functionality is flawed. I'll probably just put it away for a month or so and try it again later...I've spent too much time learning this stuff as it is, to waste anymore time rebuilding my custom bar, to have the program itself eat it. If I weren't so happy with the rest of it...I'd demand a refund. Thanks for my wasted time that is gone forever...I have absolutely nothing to show for it.

Good Night and God Bless!
