Right-click context menu missing elements

Post by olidie »

Hi,

I just upgraded my desktop and my laptop to v10. On my desktop everything is fine but on my laptop I am missing many entries in the right click context menu (see attached screenshot). For example I am missing the option to disable a profile.

Is there a setting that I am not seeing or is this a fault in the program or in my installation?

it looks like these options have been moved to the ribbon menu (see Profiles ribbon to enable/disable) / (see Common menu to delete)

I see the different context menus with the exact same program version.

Often a desktop will have a different screen resolution than a laptop. This could be your problem.

"If you right-click on a profile then a pop-up menu appears with a number of menu items. Some of the menu items may not be available due to limitations. For example, some functions cannot be used with groups (e.g. Open Left/Source) or they can only be used with a single profile and not multiple profiles (e.g. Modify). If your screen resolution is low some items will be removed, otherwise the menu will be too long to be displayed."

Thank you, this seems to be the answer. Although desktop and laptop have the same screen resolution, there is a 125% zoom set on the laptop.

I personally would prefer having to scroll through a long context menu rather than having to resort to the menu bar since I am used to the items placement in the pop-up menu.

Hi,

If your screen resolution is low, then some of the items from the pop-up menu will be removed. If not, the menu will be too long to be displayed.

Thank you.
