What the heck is up with the edit menu?

So..

I was going to load my latest male hair release into my slexchange box when I noticed this MAJOR problem. (I have included a screen shot below). When you go into edit mode on an object the more section is now wayyyyyyyyy down on the menu and when you open it there is barely enough room to even see the objects "contents" much less anything else. It's impossible, as far as I can tell, to load items into an object with the menu this way.

The contents tab opens up transparent and stays that way, so that when you try to drag an opject into the menu it goes onto the floor instead!!! This needs to be fixed! I cant even load my new items into boxes to sell!

That's strange. Mine doesn't look like that LOL. Maybe it's just a freak accident? Does it look likr that 100% of the time or was this an isolated incident?

No, this is all the time. I relogged, that didnt work. I rebooted all together, no dice. I even hopped on my hubby's account out of curiousity, and it seems this bug will not leave me alone. *I should add, this just started in the last few hours. When I was logged in earlier I had no problems with edit mode.

I've gotten this bug before. It sure is annoying, isn't it? Not sure what causes it.

I *do* know, however, that when I logged into SL using a different machine, the bug was not there. This leads me to believe that it's a rare client glitch...and the only thing I could do to make it go away was to reinstall SL on my machine.

Good luck.

Just figured that out myself. I completely uninstalled and reinstalled and its back to normal. Sure was a pain in the ass.
