Pull down menus different on 2K/XP ?

Pull down menus different on 2K/XP ?

Pull down menus different on 2K/XP ?

(OP)
We recently noticed that pull down menus are different depending on the OS. Until a few weeks ago, we only used Windows 2000 for Solid Edge users because of problems with WinXP and our older version of I-DEAS.

One new designer doesn't use I-DEAS, so we could use the preinstalled XP OS.

Pull down menus act different on these machines (example color manager) :

When you click the pull down arrow, SE on Windows 2000 only shows 3 choices and you must scroll to see the rest, but always only 3 at a time.

On Windows XP, the same menu shows 30 choices.

Is there a way to see more choices on 2K ?

RE: Pull down menus different on 2K/XP ?

Not to my knowledge.  That is an OS setting, not a Solid Edge setting.
