- However, the ALT-KEY combinations only drop down menu items for me when the
- menu line is already on the screen (F1). CUA would have them drop
- down if I pressed the ALT KEY combination while editing. CUA would
- also have the menu line continually visible.
-
- Probably a relatively small change for NBI to make that would add to
- NB's approachability for novices.
-
- Of course, CUA type menus don't work right in Wordperfect 5.1 either.
-
- I did find the settings for changing menu behavior my other respondent
- pointed out. Thanks.
