Re: gtk-xemacs

nbecker(a)fred.net writes: This is a side-effect of the VERY dynamic nature of the XEmacs menus. When GTK goes to position the menu initially it is completely empty and is filled in very quickly. You'll notice that on subsequent opening of the help menu it will be correct. Try this patch - it inserts a bogus menu item that is deleted in the normal course of events. It should be long enough that it forces the menu to pop up to the left. Hrm... do you have abnormally thick shadows on the modeline because of your default theme? -Bill P.
