Exactly, that's why I wasn't sure you meant that again :)

So absurdly small, in fact, that I thought the text was coming up misplaced 
and clipped or something like that, but you're right -- dropping a font 
setting on the hint windows fixes it. Actually, text overlaps badly at first 
right after the font drop, so the PM popup must be dismissed, and brought back 
on before everything looks right, which I guess is to be expected.

Naturally, the question is displaced slightly yet it remains essentially the 
same -- why did that happen with lSwitcher started one way, but not the other? 
It certainly looks a lot less like it may hold some secret key to fixing 
everything in one go, though :(

Oh, btw: the "fix" does stick. Another thing I wanted to report is that 
lswitch.ini is saved all the time now. Didn't we have a "Save" button for that?

That screenshot comes from a virtual test system running at 800x600 (it's very 
handy -- see the capture is not scaled), but the same happens on bare metal at 
1280x1024.

OK, sometimes we seem to talk past each other a bit so I wanted to make sure, 
sorry.

Thank you again,
