Slow menus and importing workspaces

Hi...this is my first post.
I have just started to evaluate this editor and am really impressed.
Two things I haven't found an answer for yet...should be simple answers:
1) How do I turn off the slow animated menus (fading in)?
2) Is there a way to import my Visual Studio .dsw files? That would be really cool.
Thanks,
sking

Hi Sking,
How do I turn off the slow animated menus (fading in)?
I am really not sure how to answer this. Zeus definitely does not try to do any special menu processing so if you are seeing animated menus I am really not sure what is going wrong
Is there a way to import my Visual Studio .dsw files? That would be really cool.
Unfortunately there is no way to do this

Edit: Well, just checked my Windows' settings and that was the problem...animated menus were set. I guess all my other apps are just ignoring the settings.
Problem solved!

Thanks for the reply, jussij
'twas just a shot in the dark on the .dsw files...maybe I could write something if I can figure the format of the Zeus workspace files.
...so your menus just pop up quickly? That's really strange...I'll check my Windows' settings...
thanks again,
sking

The format of the workspace is pretty straight forward. For example it is possible to
create a workspace using a simple Zeus macro.

A utility to help with the
creation of workspace files has been uploaded to the Zeus web page.

Although this post is over two years old I'd like to mention, that it
may be possible. However, I do not know VisualStudio, but seeing from some source-distributions I get the feeling, that most of the meta-data of a project is being stored in XML formatted configuration files.
If so, then it should not be too difficult to write a quick XSLT, that transforms the Microsoft project into a Zeus workspace, since that seems to be stored in XML format as well, and XSLT also could modify the .ini file, since XSLT just can produce any text-output.
