Missng menu captions - Hugson - 01-22-2010

Using TLB 4.4.3 Beta x64, I am unable to see any menu captions!

I have "Show Menu Caption" on, "Do not cut off caption" on, and each menu's "Show menu caption" is on. I am using the Windows 7 skin.

The caption bar is visible, but no words are visible.

What am I missing?

The option "Hide caption text" just under "Do not cut off caption"?

Please check the Menu Caption Font and font size (TLB Settings->Font). Also what is your Windows version?

Menu Caption FOnt is Arial 8-point bold.

Windows version is Windows 7 retail x64 with latest hotfixes.

Please, can you send me the setup.ini from the toolbar folder? I'll try to reproduce the bug with your settings. Also please post the screenshot of the menu here.

Also check the "Customize menu" dialog box. It have the "Show menu caption" option.

"Show Menu Caption" is ticked.

Attached are a screen image of a menu I just created for you, called Backups, and representing a folder D:\Backups, plus setup.ini.

Hmm... can't to reproduce Sad

One thing that can cause the problem: try to turn on the option Flat Menus (XP Style) in TLB Settings->Menu Appearance

This option remove the not skinned border around the menu and maybe restore the caption. I guess there are no room for the text. Actually that frame around the menu is the bug :oops:

Are you saying there is a bug and that you've found it?
I had already tried the Flat Menus option - but with no success.

How disappointing. The latest 64-bit Beta version (4.4.6) still hasn't managed to fix this bug.

Is this problem appear with this skin only. Is the default skin or any other have the same problem? Also do you use the WindowBlinds? And what is the edition of your Windows 7 (Ulimate, Home Basic etc.)?

- The problem occurs with any skin, including default.
- All menus have "Show menu caption" ticked.
- I do not use WindowBlinds.
- I am using Windows 7 Professional x64.

Thank you for information. Please can you try to change the Menu Caption font into the default or some other (Verdana, Tahoma). I'm not sure but maybe something wrong with the font Arial on your system.

Changed all fonts to Tahoma - made no difference! Even the Preview doesn't show the menu caption!
Is it possible to see or edit the menu caption anywhere?

Same issue exactly here.

I am on Vista 64-bit.

With TrueLaunchBar 4.2 64 bit, I have caption text and the text shows in preview. Caption shows from the default state.

With version 4.4 64 bit, there is no caption text here and it cannot be activated by any means.
