[QUOTE="Mashenden, post: 543712, member: 17871"] "No need for patch" would be great, but I thought I had tried every option - let me dig a bit more. A few questions for more clarity, if that is OK... Re: Btw - You are saying that the "Basic Home" menu is the one with 5 choices displayed horizontally, and the non-basic menu that vertically displays basic choices as well as plug in choices (if configed so) is simply called "Home", right?
