My Layout Reset Itself
Suddenly, for no apparent reason that I can think of, Madcap decided to switch to this layout and now I have this black toolbar that I didn't have before. What is this called, and how can I remove it? Thanks!

Re: My Layout Reset Itself
From the Layout drop-down list, select your layout. That should do it.

Re: My Layout Reset Itself
Did the Windows desktop theme change? Flare will most likely pick up the settings specified there. If you have a different program with ribbon (such as MS Office) you would see the same.

Re: My Layout Reset Itself
Doh! You are so right. It's not the layout that changed, it's the color of the interface. Gosh, how many of us "MVPs" does it take to change an interface?SteveS wrote:Click File -> Options to open the Options dialog box.
