Starone to Feline (re Menu)

Starone to Feline (re Menu)

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.

Hi Doreen. Stop by anytime.

Oops. Sorry feline. Back to the nicks. I like the one you came up with but guess it would mean I would have to start making cat icons. Stars are easier. Guess the grass isn't always greener on the otherside of the fence after all.

you arent thinking like a cat yet, but it will come.

when cats see a fence, they often settle down for a nap right on top of it. this way we can have a paw in both camps

He, he. Well this seems to be a good day for losing it. I'm now having lemon pie and Dr. Pepper for breakfast/lunch. Not bad either, going back for seconds. Hum, think the whole pie may be gone soon. Ought to be good and high by then. Might be able to climb that fence after all.

dont think of it as loosing something, think of it as gaining a whole new you!

a cute adorable furry fun loving you!
actually, once the furry part starts to happen you really do need to join us in the chatroom marathon, since that is where all of us furry and fuzzy ones seem to end up

Well, right now the transition is making my head spin. (Too much pie I think). Don't know if my eyes and brain could handle that many threads.

Wonder where werewolf is today? Maybe he's wisely staying out of this for a while. Beginning to wonder if you two will ever get together.

starone the pussycat - Don't know if my eyes and brain could handle that many threads.

why worry?
do you really think most of the posters in the marathon thread are managing to keep up with most of the sub threads?

after all, we are always getting messages along the lines of "what is going on here, i am confused"

right, i have just tried this on my win2k !!! machine, and it worked!

so, if / when either DavidK or werewolf show up once more, we can start looking more carefully.

we cannot simply say it never works on win2k

Well, that's good news. I'll try to round werewolf up today and steer him towards the thread again. You two may yet get together. He can steer you toward the irc. I know he is still working on getting the solution.

i think we had best give up on the IRC plan.

this machine is sitting behind several firewalls, and i have heard that IRC and such arent allowed through.

anyway, plan B is interesting.

this involves getting you into the marathon thread, where you can explore your pussycat side more freely.

also it ups the odds of me getting the 2000th post

also, as a bonus, JavaBrain is already there, so hopefully we can get her to throw things at one of the stardock programmers if need be

I'm here, so, what's plan B? You have a plan feline?

/me wonders if i have the energy to drag werewolf back to the marathon thread for this discussion

perhaps if i rolled you there?

anyway, back to the plot. i dont get the problem you get with the menus, but then i dont have OE installed.

is OE in your windows path?

I'm listening to this...

While you've been chatting here I've moved closer to 2000, hehe, there's no stopping me now

feline: we can go to the marathon thread...np...just let me know

The Stardock stuff in my path statement looks like this: D:\STARDO~1\OBJECT~1\OBJECT~1\ so it's hard to tell OE is my default txt editor...ie if I dbl click on a .txt file, OE is loaded.

Hum, while the cat's away, the mouse will play. Oops, sorry Feline, I forgot that we didn't switch nicks. Okay, I give, I'll go to the marathon thread, but I think this is going to hurt.

Thanks feline, I feel much better now.

dont worry to much about all the noise and fuss in the marathon thread.

just rembember the kids will be kids. think of them as mobile cat toys is my advice.

anyway, you really should return since i / we are still trying to make some meaningful progress on the smart button issue.

we seem to have had some initial success, but it is now a matter of building on it.

Good news. Hope the solution will be soon.

/me thinks part one of the solution should be to tickle fuzzy logic until he provides us both with lots of chocolate

this should give us something constructive to do while waiting for werewolf to re-appear.

of course if DavidK was reading this and de-lurked then he could also try some of the current experiments to see how we are progressing

/me *drops elephant sized hint, and wonders if it will connect*
