Sorry, i posted before testing more: This problem occures if the parameters font_id, standard_point, medium_point, and small_point in xaaes.cnf are commented out (with #) and if they are set, too. Then, at start, XaAES (TeraDesk) menu is displayed correct (10pt), but as soon as i open any PRG, the menu (...) is redrawn with 8pt font. Lars
