Large menus of IDE not readable on Touch Diamond

Hello,

I have a problem when programming on my device:
On my Diamond some large menus do not show properly. If the number of entries does not fit on the screen, arrows appear on top and bottom. At the same time the entries of the later pages are drawn over the current entries. After a while, everything is black and unreadable.

This occurs for example in the menus that show the available properties or methods after typing an objects name followed by the dot.
Can't provide a screenshot now, will try later from my desktop.

This happends to me too, and I am 90% certain that it is ROM related...
Are you using a "custom" ROM?
I know I am.
I'm using one of Tomal's lattest ROM, Never had this before...

Hm, no I have the official latest german version which is
1.93.407.1 GER

That behaviour does not occur in any other application, so I doubt it is a ROM issue. Maybe framework-related? I have .net compact 3.5 installed.

I've had different "views" on different roms

Basic4ppc uses the standard menu control, so the problem is probably somewhere else.
Does any other HTC Diamond users see this problem?

Humm I have it too, but it came "pre-installed" in the ROM....So I cannot un-install it...
Have you manually installed yours?
Anyone knows how to "repair" the CF Instalation?
I think this may have to do with some regestry keys missing or wrong values in them...Of course, CF3.5 related keys...

Yes, CF 2.0 is included. I'll remove 3.5 and see what happens.

Edit: Just tried. The problem perrsists.

I have the same problem with the menü. Although I've changed the system-font(look exports_Menu.zip) so that everything fits now, but a few bugs are still present (look at the pics under my post)
