Starone to Feline (re Menu)

August 22, 2002 8:13 PM from

Hey, Feline. Remember the menu issue we were pondering over back on the object bar thread? Well, when the later version of WB came out and I updated to XP, the problem cleared up. However, I have just discovered that werewolf now has the same problem I had at the time. Whenever he tries to open up one of the items on the menu, instead of opening the program it throws him into Object Edit. This is all very strange, huh? Don't know why my problem cleared itself as I didn't do anything to get it to work. Thought this might be of interest to you as we had labored many hours over this. Also kind of hoping that maybe someone else may read this and have a clue that might help werewolf out.

I left this same message on the Marathon Message board. He'll show up somewhere.

Hi werewolf. Man when he hides he really hides. Wonder if his ears are burning?

He keeps describing his work environment in terms of how hot and humid it is, so it is entirely possible his ears are burning

Your funny werewolf. If nothing else, maybe we can keep this thread going until he magically appears.

An offer of a tickle might work better...

WOW - that ought to do it werewolf. Just the smell of chocolate should bring him around though. As far as the marathon thread, well, too big for my eyes.

as for where i was hiding, it has only just gone 7pm local time. since i am on holiday this week, my net connection is only valid (ie free phone calls) after 6pm

dracoform notes that noting is being said about what feline has been doing with all this spare time

at the risk of changing topics, have the crayons been taken back again by T-Man?

/me goes to sulk in the basement

while i am down there, which skin is it you are getting the "bonus feature's" with?

also, how good are you with messing around with windows?
me and starone ran to over 200 posts trying to track down exactly what was happening.

we achieved the longest thread in its day!

dont get to happy just yet, i dont think we ever did get to the bottom of this one

however, that isnt going to stop me trying again. after all, i might as well put my bloddyminded nature to good use

Well you still have your sense of humor for sure. Your right, we never did find the solution. It probably does have something to do with windows (I suspect) since when I upgaded it straightened out. Would like to know the cause of the original problem though and seems another opportunity to find out has arisen. Hopefully this time it will be solved. Don't know where werewolf is at the moment though. Seems he's not on irc either. Seems someone is always disappearing around here.

perhaps when werewolf re-appears we should sit on him? that should slow down his running away act a bit

so, is anyone going to tell me the name of the skin that has this problem?

or should i just lie here looking cute, and trying to think of new and innovative uses for chocolate handcuffs?

Hey, feline, cool your paws. This is a spin the bottle quiz. You pick 'em, you name 'em. Seriously though, I've been including the smartbutton menu in my skins and werewolf has been trying to use the menus in them. They work for me, but not for him. Ooops almost forgot to give you a name. Guess you could start with Liquidaqua for starters. You can still lie there and look cute though if you wish until we hear back from werewolf. Man, what is it when you're invited to a party. The thread seems to grow rapidly.
