Disappearing menus

[Werner.D]

Hi All,


Some menus at times disappear behind the active window such that I have to minimize the window in order to see it. This has happened to the "Toggle Key" "Sketcher Constraints" and many others. I have also had some "OK/Cancle" option menus disappear under the parent menu, without having moved them on the screen from their default position. Has anyone else had this type of problem?

Yep. **It happens.

Is this then what is known as a user UN-friendly interface?

Any Fixes??

 

[jeff4136]

I suppose it is. I learned Pro/E in a vacuum and that was
probably the biggest confusion hurdle to get over. No fixes.



( Well ... maybe changing jobs?

)

I'd be changing to Solidworks before I change jobs. I've waited too long to be where I am.


Thanks anyway, I appreciate that that's the way it is.

Alt+Tab should allow you to cycle to the "disappearing" window. Try it a couple of times. It takes a little practice.

Thank you daryl.quam,


Itworks fine using Alt+Tab, though I wonder where the ProE programmers were when it came to designing the menu system!!

I have never experienced this. i think it must be something in the way you have configured your screen or Windoze.
