office 2007 menus disappear

Post by callmejoe »

hi, i'm new to wine. i've been using linux mint for about 2 years now (on 18.3 now). just installed wine 3.0.1 and have been playing around with it for 2 weeks or so. installed office 2007. using excel and word. had some trouble with powerpoint but found the riched20 solution.

anyway, my problem is with the some of the menus and their sub-menus. for instance in excel if you click on the windows logo on the top left you see the new, open, save, print, etc. options. if i select an option and then try to move to another option the whole menu closes. same happens with an open spreadsheet that has filters. if i am a little sloppy with the mouse pointer and move slightly the filter menu disappears.

i can certainly work with it. just really a slight annoyance. but was wondering if this is a known thing and maybe an easy solution for it.

thanks
