I haven't had any problems, Manny, other than the Thunderbird
composition window getting scrambled. But that tends to be if I'm either
writing a long message or doing a lot of editing.
The only way to clean it up I've found is to add a second action to the
program scope Control-Home cursor key in Thunderbird_write.set. I add,
Execute hot key, Redraw, and then put a delay of 10 on that key. Then
when I Control-Home it redraws the screen and reads the line. I then
just have to go back down through the message.
I haven't had the problem in Explorer. So I just suggested a cursor
delay to see if it would work.
One thing I do recommend in Explorer is to turn off Show preview handles
in the preview pane. You can do this from within Explorer or the Folder
options in the Windows control panel.
Tools.
Advanced.
Uncheck Show preview handles in preview pane.

Hi Tom,

did you have this problem and fixed it by doing what you suggested.

why if everything is working well why does WE8 get confused
and not read correctly after a while of tabbing around different programs?
3.
while writing this email, I had to cut and paste to wordpad, because WE8
kept repeating the same line twice instead of the next line.
In thunderbird WE8 read the 2 lines as:
why if everything is working well why does WE8 get confused
why if everything is working well why does WE8 get confused
while in wordpad we8 read it correctly as:

and not read correctly after a while of tabbing around different programs?
Good luck, Manny
