Stop neurotic submenus from disappearing
Authored by: MJCube on Sep 20, '04 03:26:48PM

At first I thought this wasn't working for me, because I confused the issue with a similar one: When you're on a submenu, if you accidentally move back into its parent menu for even an instant, you lose the submenu. This hint doesn't address that problem; just the problem of getting across to the submenu in the first place without losing it.

And that issue is more forgiving because there's a delay: If you move horizontally or even diagonally across the main menu, the submenu stays put for a full second after you leave the main menu item. The System seems to allow movement within 45° of horizontal from the main menu item; if it's any more vertical than that, the submenu disappears immediately.

So this hint is helpful if it takes you much more than one second to get over to a submenu.
