Compact Start Menu

Sunday, February 22, 2004 by ama02 | Discussion: Stardock Software

Whenever I switch to a WB skin that has the compact start menu option, the right-half menu (My Computer, Control Panel, etc.) shows the icons, and also shows a bit of the label text to the right of each icon...only half of the first letter is showing. Is there something I should do to get rid of the partial text? I am using WB version 4.2 build 123, and this happens on all of my compact menu skins.

Thanks in advance!

set your icons to large. if you have iconpackager you can do this through the options.

If you don't have icon packager, you can switch to large icons in Display Properties.

Right click on the desktop, and Properties. When the Display Properties dialog opens, click on the Appearance Tab. On the right hand side of this tab about halfway down, click on the Effects button. In the new dialog button that opens up, about halfway down the list, click on the 'Use large icons' checkbox. Hit the 'OK' button to close the window. On the main Display Properties dialogue, click the 'Apply' button, then click 'OK' to close the window.

I tried the 'Use Large Icons' option...but don't like everything so big...so I'll just learn to live with the minor text glitch. ) Thanks for the help guys!
