re: st: Lost menu access to menu options version 8

[Bob Fitzgerald <bobf@pacbell.net>]

Thanks to Alan Riley who posted directly to me I have found the answer to 
my disappearing menu options. There is some non-zero probability (ok, a 
really small probability) that someone/s else may discover the same problem 
so here's the answer. At some point in using version 8 and its new 
windowing features, I must have moved my Viewer window around, and then 
perhaps resized the main Stata window or otherwise lost view of the viewer 
window. This loss persisted from that session forward.

The solution was distressingly simple and one I should have tried before 
posting to the list: Choose the default windowing preference under the 
"Prefs" menu. Now everything works and I will be especially careful 
navigating the new floating windows.

Regards,

Bob
