Hi Randy, Thanx for the reply. What the original question was: how to set the number of lines that are displayed when the user clicks open an Option button. I could not find the property for this in v2.8.1. In actual fact, it is not there on the Inspector. Sarah placed an image of the v2.9.0 Inspector on her web site showing this newly placed property to manually set the "menuLines" to a number. =-=-=-=-=-= Mark Stuart
