Hi,
I have just downloaded V3 Final version from the 'V3 portal' the
release version of V3.0 promoted as being now fit to be an official release,
but the back pointer on the toolbar still doesn't work, it doesn't even
activate ie. light up. the only way to go forward is to right click and select
the function from the resulting menu I would have thought that they would have
solved this by now, it worked OK on earlier versions and there has been no
lack of reports regarding this on the list over a large number of weeks. also
the 'Hotkey' and 'auto close Download window' settings in 'General settings
still don't work. Sorry but the V3 3.0 final still contains the bugs that have
anoyed me for months, because they used to work OK before, and if they worked
once it should be a small task to make them work again. The back pointer also
still seems to be intermittant in it's operation as does the save/save-as
options, some times not saving to the directory selected in VPrefs. :-{
Yours,
Dave.
