As the author of Usher I thought I'd try out this latest oddity. My findings have confirmed the following: ** With Usher as shell and *no* other Windows apps running, the title bar which normally appears when alt-tab switching doesn't appear. I always have at least one other Windows app running (actually two: Intermission and Ralph), so I've never seen this problem. Darn good question as to why this happens. I didn't add a secret line into Usher such as AltTabTitleDisable (). :-) By the by, I'm going to release Usher 1.2 shortly. Mainly bug fixes dealing with the "sticky" right button. Sorry, no new features. Thanks to those who have registered your copy of Usher -- it gives me incentive to keep working.... Please write if you have any bug notifications or would like to suggest any new (reasonable) features. To reiterate what I've stated in the past: I don't know of any way to allow the user to select an item from the right button menu using the right button -- you have to use the left. If *anyone* has any suggestions to fix this please write back. Thanks again! george (author of Usher and soon a graduate of NCSU!) -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ | o | George Browning george@catt.ncsu.edu | o | | o | NC State University Raleigh, NC | o | ------------------------------------------------------------------------
