Drawers Won't Stay Put...
« on: July 05, 2003, 04:28:47 PM »
I've always used DropDrawers on both the Lombard and the Pismo w/o problem... but suddenly on the Lombard the drawers won't stay where I put them. I have them on the left side of the screen lined up in a strip... things like sleep mode and even just opening one sometimes makes them move... still on the left but out of position, and often one covering another.

Tried trashing the preferences... any other ideas anyone?

Thnx... smile.gif

What making fun?

I'm not in 9 at the moment so I assumed one can trash the sleep prefs also.

You're right... sorry 'bout that! I couldn't find anything called "sleep" or such but I guess it would be the "Energy Saver Preferences"...

Worth a try... I'll let ya know... smile.gif

Also I don't own droopydrawers so there is no way I could test it myself.

Well, I recently lost some weight and I was hoping you 'guys' could help me with a similar problem: I don't usually wear a belt when wearing my 'work' pants, but I'm having trouble keeping them up now.

Where are those 'prefs' things that will help this problem? And how does trashing them help with keeping drawers in place?! jawdrop.gif Or should I just get more sleep?! Devilish2.gif

OoooooKay!! I can see I started something here...  rolleyes.gif

DropDrawers seriously is giving me a problem on the Lombard, but the PB's new owner isn't worried if he can't use the program, isn't hooked on it like I am... myself, I can't do w/o it.

As for droopy drawers, well that's a whole 'nother thing... tongue.gif

Geeesss DB. Hope you didn't hand over the keys without finding the problem?

Whether the new owner isn't worried or is, isn't really the issue.

Now, now, Bill . . . nono.gif

DB

Before she went to X, Kris was a big fan of DropDrawers, as I recall. I could be wrong, but if anyone knows that utility well, she'd be the candidate I'd recommend.

(As I recall she took some abuse from Bill when she mentioned it/them, too!)  taped.gif

Yup... it was Krissel that suggested the program to me and I've been sold on it since...  

S'Okay... we "all" know Bill is trouble, and I was feeling goofy yesterday... I kinda figured that subject line was asking for it...  Devilish2.gif
