Are you using Windowblinds 6?
I noticed when I installed 6 that a Command dialog was still active when it ask me to reboot and I waited on the dialog to close BEFORE letting it reboot. One of the items I saw scroll by (update) in that dialog was in the Rightclick directory.

Yes, I am using Windowblinds 6, but installed Right Click later (yesterday when the new Beta was released).

I do remember seeing the command dialog you mention when I installed WB6. I didn't pay attention to what was in it, but with RC click not being installed at the time ...

Maybe there are some issues with RC and WB6

I may try uninstalling and reinstalling WB6 to see if that does the trick.

Buzz,

Control Center, ObjectBar, and rightclick have never been skinning apps like WB.  They really are productivity apps that can be skinned.  Check out the history here: http://members.aol.com/JMB1984/MacVision

RC is a great app as it stands.  Enhancements are always welcome but you bought what it is . . not what is might be someday.  Fortunately, Stardock has a mindset of giving their users more bang for their buck in regards to updates.  It's just a fact of life that the flagship products like WB are going to get more attention.

I'd be interested in a new post from you (and the other RC's) with a list of enhancements you'd like to see.  Call it the "RightClick wishlist".  I have a bunch for Vista users.  And for both XP and Vista users . . there has to be some function that's more useful than "Erase Floppy Drive"

I'm an idiot . . . there is a wishlist . . and it's linked up above.

Sorry.

gef : Try other skins. It seems dependent on the skin if menus show up or not

This happens with all skins supplied with the beta as well as my prefered one - Ah well!

Okay, after re-starting my pc this evening I have the same problem. None of the submenus show up anymore.

Aktually, if You look closely :



Only happens when choosing transperancy. Setting Opaque 100 % solves the problem for me.

Yes, I can confirm this bug and the (short-term) solution for it. I tried various levels of opacity, but only setting it to 100% would make the sub-menus showing up again.

Set at 100% opacity and still the sub-menus will not show for me

I agree, it'd be nice to be able to add a pop-up called "Windows defaul RC" and have it pull up the non-RC options.

Zubaz starts tinkering . . .

yep...thats always been one of the wish things. Although when on my desktop there is a key on the right next to my CTRL key that brings up the default desktop rightclick so im use to using that ..but it would be nice that RC program would include that - as well as the option to save configerations which has been a problem from day 1 ...and of course PNG support for those of us that skin RC. BMPS and magic pink just limit the type of design and transparency...

CTRL + RightClick

CTRL + RightClick
That's a great substitute/option . . but I would like it as a pop-up WITHIN RC

CTRL + RightClick


I forgot about that one

I thought the latest version fixed the sub menus not showing in Vista?

It's been a few months now since installing RightClick to my new computer & added *Properties to the RightClick menu & with that I get the Windows default Right click options.

It's My Secret

What *properties did you add, and where did you add them from.

"Various Funtion Item" then use "Configure" & drill down into the "Change" list.

HTH

I am taking about the Display panel for windows default, to access the ScreenSaver Appearance ect. Is this what everyone is talking about? If not then I apologize

No, I think people are talking about the default menu you normally get when right clicking on desktop,,arrange icons, refresh, new, etc.
But there is no way I know of to get that menu into the RightClick program itself.
As Lantec said, using Cntrl+ rightclick will bring that menu up.
