Running Structured Frame 7.2/8 on Macbook Pro under OS10/Parallels

[Sam Beard]

Will,

   I don't think that's related to running on a Mac, Parallels or not.
I'm on Windows XP with 7.2 and I have that same problem at times.
Actually, there are times I have to click on it THREE times: once to
select it, once to activate the drop-down, and once to fully populate
it. I've been pretty curious about what causes it, but haven't asked.

That might not be just a Parallels thingy.   For the longest time I  
have had to click twice in FM 7.x on XP in dropdown lists in  
dialogs.  Once to populate the dropdown, the second time to generate  
a scroll bar.  Am I alone?  A minor aggro - but still.
