Jonathan, I found another bug in Dir Opus 4.0. Sometimes when I click on the small Iconify button, Dir Opus just totally disappears. It does not appear anywhere on the WB screen. However, when I try to run it again, a requester states that Dir Opus is already running. I also cannot Uniconify it with the hot key sequence. Apparently, Dir Opus is still running, but it cannot be seen nor uniconified. I either have to run Dir Opus again, in which case I'll have two versions running, or reboot. It only happens intermittently, but it happens enough to be a problem. 😎 I hope this fix will also be in 4.01. Thanks for listening. Also, I think Dir Opus 4.0 is a marvelous program. I just finished reading the manual and have configured everything except the buttons and menus, which I'm still working on. Keep up the great work. Dom Fontana <– Sent from New York via AutoPilot –>

Dennis, Do you mean that when you changed the default hot key combination used to uniconify DOpus that it allowed it to reappear after it disappeared, or that it never disappeared? If it's the former, then it's a good workaround for now, but there would still me a bug, since it's not supposed to disappear at all. Thanks. Dom Fontana <– Sent from New York via AutoPilot –>

I wasn't using the default configuration I was using my old defaults from the previous version of Opus. My old hot key combo worked for a while then stopped. When I changed the combination it started working again and has been OK since. Dennis ….on AutoPilot
