OS3.5 / IBrowse

Mr Creosote · 13 February 2003, 23:10

I recently upgraded to OS 3.5 and took the opportunity to reinstall everything from the scratch again. Now I've run into a problem with IBrowse: the menus take up more space than there is available horizontally! I can't get into the 'Preferences' menu, because it's out of the screen (I'm using 640x512 resolution). Yes, I'm aware that I can make the desktop larger and then scroll right, but that's not really a solution for me. It worked fine on OS3.1 before. Any ideas what could cause this?

It's not OS3.5 that's doing it, it's MUI or your font settings.

If you are running IBrowse on workbench, use mui's PSI to set up a custom screen and set a small default font (some thing like 'thinpaz/8') then use the mui settings option in IBrowse to tell it to use that screen.

or try changing the screen font in your workbench font prefs.

or as a third option install magicmenu (from http://www.magicmenu.de ) then right clicking on an unused part of the IBrowse window will pop-up all the menus.

I had tried PSI before, didn't change anything. The Workbench setting did the trick though - thanks a lot
