Customizing menu's appearance

Hello,
A few weeks ago one of my programs crashed, when it
crashed it changed the way the menus behaved (both context
and regular menus) When a menu was selected it did not
appear unless the mouse was dragged over it or a arrow key
was pressed. The menus responded normally (esc made the
menu go away, up moved the selection up down moved the
selection down). Everything was perfectly normal about the
menus except that they did not appear unless selected, if
an item was selected and then another item was selected
(like if you were to push Alt+F Down Down) then two items
would appear ("Open" and "Save as") and the highlighting
would also appear normally ("open" would have lost the
selection and "save as" would be selected). This made the
screen much easier for me to see, as I have set the size
of the menus extremely large because I have difficulty
seeing. Is there anyway to emulate this behavior all the
time?
 
Hi Joe,

Not sure I understand, and you failed to mention what application is involved, but
perhaps you are talking about Personalized Menus. For more information, try search
help for "Personalized Menus".
