If you want to talk about a "perv": I'm currently using 7.1.4 for all my
development work.

Don't forget to use "OMG/LOL/derisno/perv" as in for example: "OMG,
why are you using 6.7, are you a total perv? Derisno past! LOL." :)
There is a history to every product, and not only do we learn a lot by
comparing past to present, but the latest version of LC that people
take for granted owes a lot of fixes and some features to Paul in
particular due to his meticulous work and testing, providing a huge
benefit to the entire community!
It's wonderful to keep up with recent LC releases, especially where
Apple is concerned, but sometimes circumstances and LC bugs/features
can affect the speed of that process. Then you have people who grab
the latest DP, precisely because it is the very latest thing, and get
confused trying to tell the difference between their own bugs and DP
bugs. I help people with that often enough to know that a chorus of
"just grab the latest" is advice that needs clarification.

I believe this menu issue is also a current bug in LC 8.1.2! Haven't
tried it yet in LC 9, but I will soon. LC 6.6 was okay, so it must
have been introduced in 6.7 and remained until now.

Change for the sake of change keeps some people incredibly happy,
others less so! The new interface does take some getting used to, and
the old interface definitely had its strengths too, as I've realized
lately with certain particular tasks and with teaching others. Much to
learn from comparing and critiquing LC versions, enjoying the very
latest as well as some past specimens!
