[LOGic] LOGIC 8 CONVERSION ISSUES

Tue Jun 27 00:06:55 EDT 2006

Julio...
Many thanks for your reply.
Item #1 worked well, altho it's still different from prior LOGIC versions:
by clicking "IN WINDOWS DESKTOP", and unclicking "ALWAYS ON TOP", I can
indeed get the DX Summit Spot log to go away...however, it no longer exists
on the desktop at all...only by restarting it, or going to LOGIC\WINDOW tab,
can I again find the DX Summit Spot window. I'd prefer it a little
different, but I can live with it. BTW, if "ALWAYS ON TOP" remins clicked,
there is no way to make the window go to the background.
Item #2 was fixed as you suggested. It seems to be working fine now.
Item #3: Odd, I had no Item #3! What was I doing?!?
Item #4: I'd be inclined to blame it on my PC, but LOGIC 7 is still running
here, and it is considerably speedier than LOGIC 8. I agree this may be a
question for Dennis.
Thanks for your help & suggestions!
