1.1.6pre2 problem with Pref. menu
Hello all, Just had a quick look at the new release. A small bug seems to have crept in. I can't access the "look feel" and "language opts" menus. Instead, clicking on those brings up the "screen fonts" and "language" menus respectively. I'm using xforms 0.89, which comes with debian potato.

Re: 1.1.6pre2 problem with Pref. menu
Oops...user error Perhaps replacing one of your users might be the solution :) I don't even use windows *that* much, but its "tab" idiom seems to have crept in to my mind. As for visual clues; the only one I can suggest is perhaps offsetting the top line to emphasize the structure. I suspect in this case though it is simply the case that convention was a little unexpected.
