Action Menu - dropdown list falls below bottom of the screen

(Q) We have a few customers to-date where the Action menu, for all forms, fails to place the bottom of the dropdown at the bottom of the display. A number of the lower selections are not displayed.

Different versions of Opera.
Different versions of Windows (7 and 8.1 so far).
Different brands of hardware.

So far they are all on laptops with wide screen aspect.

(A) Our work-around has been to use an external monitor with greater height than the host laptop.

Anyone else has a fix or a work-around to use the built-in native screen?

Thanks

That being said i feel its a limitation of VFP9 having created forms mayself.

I have seen this happen and to fix we switched off advanced previews in the users preferences in Opera. The customer had their windows font size set to 150% which messes up the printing of reports with advanced previews (it zooms right in). We advised them to switch off advanced previews to fix the reporting issue and they told us it also fixed the menu issue too.

Kind regards,

Alex
