To quote from the User Documentation on "using menus":

  To "stick a menu up and leave it up so you can select items from it
  multiple times, click and hold down the mouse and release on the
  title of the menu (if it has one) and it will remain up.

This is what doesn't work for me. It worked when I installed
enlightenment-0.16.6 under Red Hat 9, but stopped working under Fedora
2. (I just tried going back to enlightenment-0.16.6 under Fedora Core 2,
and "sticking menus" doesn't work under that release, either.) So this
problem arose from my updating my system to Fedora 2.

Since I posted my original message, I updated all my packages to make
sure I have a fully-up-to-date Fedora Core 2 system. (The only effect
that had was to make the "close" box appear on menus, without however
restoring their "sticky" functionality.)

This problem also persists. I have libpng-1.2.2-22 installed.

If "sticky menus" are supposed to work under this release with Fedora
Core 2, I would appreciate any suggestions for what might be wrong with
my system. No dependency problems were reported upon installation of
Enlightenment. Also, I have all reasonably relevant libraries from
Fedora Core 2 installed. Furthermore, to be on the safe side, I
recompiled the source rpm for this release on my machine and installed
the resulting package, but that did not make any difference.
