Hi

I am running XP Pro. When trying to select menu's (eg File / Edit / View) on non microsoft applications like CAD/CAM software it turns white. The menu stays white until I exit the application and go back in. The microsoft applications on the same P.C does not have this problem. This is not causing be any problems, but is very annoying !

Can you help??

Thanks
 
Go to Display Properties/Appearance Tab /Advanced/
under list scroll down to Menus, from there you can choose
any color. You might want to save your theme since this appears to be a default.
 
You could try the Display Settings, radio button "Disable visual themes" found under the Compatibility Tab on the Properties Page of the CAD.exe.

"This prevents visual themes from being applied to the program. Try this option if you are experiencing problems with menus or with buttons on the title bar of a program. When you close the program, the theme setting will switch back to your default setting".
