The multiitem menu has a stylesheet which can be found in the IBI_HTML library under javaassist\ibi\html\js and it is called multidrill.css.

HOWEVER, I would not suggest that you change this as it will be overwritten at a poiint in the future when you upgrade.

Imho, it would be better to develop your own multimenu version using mouseover events and dynamic HTML divs as have been discussed in many posts on this forum. Alternatively, look at the topics in Focus on Developers on the IBI website link

Thanks a lot Tony. Deadlines are extremely strict for this project. So i guess for this one we could change the multidrill.css file and get the html solution up a bit later. We guys aren't too good in HTML..Thanks once again

Ya understand that. We need a standard look and feel for the multi drill downs across the application. So it shouldn't be a problem. Thanks a million.

we use a gray background and black lettering
and have changed the .css file.
white bold font has the optical property of 'tearing', and blue background conflicts with my color palates;
the file is {drive}:\ibi\WebFOCUS52\ibi_html\javaassist\ibi\html\js\multidrill.css
I make 2 backup copies:
1 of the original
and 1 of the edited version
and i have a long list of these files that i have changed, so when i do an upgrade, i know right away which files i need to edit.
my edited version of this file is:
DIV.clsMDMenu {
	background-color: #f0f0f0;
	position: absolute; 
	visibility: hidden; 
/*	width: 130px; */
	padding: 5px 5px 5px 8px; 
	border: thin solid outset;
    }
    DIV.clsMDMenu A { 
		font-family: arial;
		font-size: 9pt;
		text-decoration: none; 
		color: #0c0c0c; 
		font-variant: small-caps;
		font-weight: normal
		letter-spacing: 1; 
	}
    DIV.clsMDMenu A:hover { 
		font-family: arial;
		color: blue; 
		text-decoration: underline; 
	}

i love T's idea of special code for each instance, but like you, i just had to kill that white on blue right away. I'm going to try T's method next.
