I've noticed similar problems on Windows 7. There the menu-item text is black, but turns white when you mouse over it, however the background also lightens and so the contrast between the two makes it hard to see the highlighted text. I think this is related to the Gtk theme specified/installed in your Gtk install. This theme affects the "widget" appearance for all Gtk-based apps on your system not just the J7 IDE. There does seem to be other theme options and instructions to change, but I'm not sure that there are better (more Windows like) ones for Windows versions later than XP. If there is I'd be keen to hear about it! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For information about J forums see http://www.jsoftware.com/forums.htm
