Here's what I'm seeing:
1. Open a built-in data file, e.g. data 4-10 from Ramanathan.
*Fine. *
2. Go to the model menu and Estimate a model (e.g. OLS with ENROLL as
dependent, CATHOL, PUPIL and WHITE as independent).
*Fine.*
3. The model output window appears. I move the mouse pointer into
that
window, and click on (say) "Analysis": the Analysis menu drops down.
*This is where it breaks down, as I thought I'd explained in the OP.*
*The "Analysis" tab lights up as I point the cursor over it, but clicking
on it doesn't bring down the drop-down menu. What about that wasn't clear?
The fact that I said 'activate' on first ask? Really, what difference does
this make? It means the same bloody thing!!*
If step 3 is not working for you, that's probably because the
model window
is not acquiring "focus" when you move the mouse pointer into it. That's a
matter of Desktop policy (not gretl policy). Depending on Desktop options
you might have to click on the model window to give it focus.
Or is this not what you're talking about?
*Seriously, I really think you're just confusing matters unnecessarily by
talking about 'focus'. I'm just talking about not being able to open up
drop-down menus in results windows, as was also crystal clear in my OP.
What are you talking about, exactly?*
*Going by the two latest replies in this thread, I reckon I'm not without
friends in this regard.*
