I have a rather embarrassing question regarding the ALT key. I am finding that once it is used either for a key command or as a modifier when using the mouse, that upon releasing the ALT key the first menu in Pyramix is highlighted. A second press of the ALT key is required to toggle the menu highlight off.
I must be able to turn off this behavior somewhere in the XP OS?
(Can you tell I am a Mac-User?)

Hi,
I believe this function applies to the OS and all applications running under it.
I'm not completely sure, but I think this function is hard to bypass since it's kind of a core function.
The menu-toggle function is rather useless in PMX (we all use key-commands anyway) and I was a little bit anoyed with this behavior in the beginning myself.
After using PMX every day for a while, I got used to it and haven't thought about it since..
I'm not sure this helps you in any way, but I
really hope you find a solution that works for you.
Tell us if/how things work out for you.
And PMX for OSX.. That IS a sweet thought.
Kind regards,
Morgan N.

TDC,
FWIW, this happens to me too but it seems to be inconsequential, ie, it doesn't adversely impact anything. What is a problem for me now and then is that pressing ALT results in Pyramix getting stuck in 'zoom' mode. I have to press ALT again to get it to release zoom mode. And I'm using a Logitech wireless (not bluetooth) keyboard too. I hate this thing...the keyboard often takes a moment to register my commands and I can edit faster than the keyboard can keep up.
Good luck,
Steve
