Common Problems > When I open a menu, some of the items are grayed

There are occasions when an item on a menu is not applicable because certain conditions are not met.  For example, if you do not have any data windows open (because you have not opened any files, or loaded data from a logger), it is not sensible to save data, as there is no data to save..

 

Under these circumstances Temprecord will 'gray' the File/Save menu entry, as a reminder that you need to do something else before you can use that entry.

 

Other examples of menu entries that are 'grayed' are:
