    Shift-F8 mode not working for me.

    "F8" mode works fine, aside from the "dialog obscures devices and cannot be repositioned" issue I've mentioned previously.  See attached view of F8 mode working properly.  However, thereis one interesting thing to note: The circular bars are colored properly, showing reachability I'm guessing.  But there's no hop count number shown.  Perhaps the rendering was changed since the screenshot Chris posted earlier.

     "Shift-F8", however, doesn't do anything for me.  Neither does right-click followed by "View Signal Strength".  You can't see it in these screen shots, but the cursor has changed.  It's a normal arrow with a small circle to the right and below it.  The circle is solid black with a white outline.  Clicking on devices has no effect.  Just in case it's a "target box is mispositioned" kind of issue, I've clicked all over the map.  No effect.

    The about dialog reports  Version 2.1 (Build 2)

    Seems I can attach one image per post.  Here's the "F8 works" image.

    JeffS,

    It appears that you have a Z-Wave USB Adapter which is _not_ an installer stick.  We included the degraded F8 mode for those occassions, but it looks like we're not hiding the other options properly.

    What Z-Wave adapter are you using?

    Chris

    Hmm.  I'm using a thinkstick.  But maybe I've got the wrong image loaded on it.  Trying to reload the installer image...

    I think I had zwave_425_staticcontroller.ctu loaded on the stick.

     I've reinstalled using the setup.exe posted in the ThinkStick forums.  And that fixed it.  Thanks.
